Saudi woman soldier Abir al-Rashed held a press conference on Tuesday before the start of the Hajj season by Saudi security commanders.
This press conference has always been held by a male soldier before, and it is unprecedented in the history of Saudi Arabia to be held by a female soldier.
Saudi media reported that the female soldier had attracted attention by presenting the activities of the annual conference of the Hajj Security Forces, which she presented with high confidence and loud voice.
Ms. Al-Rashed attended the press conference in a military uniform and a black hat on his veil.
After a military salute, she began a press conference in which the officers in charge spoke about the security of the Hajj and security programs, car traffic, and organized programs.
The release of the video of this conference in cyberspace has been widely welcomed by users.
