They will accompany the Hajj pilgrims till the borders of Jordan.

The first group of the pilgrims visited the shrines in Najaf city of Iraq. The second caravan consisting of 26 buses is also in Iraq now.

Hajj pilgrims traveling by planes will leave on October 28-31. Five planes have been allocated for this goal.

2000 Azerbaijani Muslims will be on Hajj pilgrimage in 2011. Bus travel costs AZN 2650 (last year it cost AZN 2500), air travel AZN 3750 (last year it cost AZN 3500).
