A 19-floor building was demolished in a controlled explosion in Makkah's Gaza district on Thursday morning. The demolition was part of the expansion project of the northern plaza of the Grand Mosque area.
Earlier in the year Prince Khaled Al-Faisal, Emir of Makkah, announced a 10-year modernisation plan, which includes the expansion of the Grand Mosque and its surrounding areas.
