As tensions between the two countries erupt this week into a full-blown diplomatic crisis, Iran has on Thursday, January 7, banned all products from Saudi Arabia with immediate effect.
Shiite-dominated Iran made this known following Saudi’s (main Sunni power) cutting off of diplomatic ties.
The government also noted that a ban on Iranians travelling to the Saudi holy city of Mecca for the umrah pilgrimage was also in place “until further notice”.
