Saudi Arabia executed 330 people last year, 2024, the highest toll in decades, despite Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman’s 2022 claim that the death penalty would only apply in murder cases. The executions, which include over 150 for non-lethal crimes like drug smuggling and anti-government protests, have raised concerns about human rights abuses. The country’s Vision 2030 plan aims to transform its global image, but critics argue that repression continues behind the scenes.
Pray for divine protection upon those persecuted for their beliefs and actions in Saudi Arabia. Pray for justice and peace for the oppressed in the country. (The Holy Bible, Psalm 141:8).
