Nazik Hariri, wife of the Lebanese premier, Suha Arafat, wife of former Palestinian President Yasser Arafat, and Sheikha Mouza, wife of Qatar’s emir, were other prominent personalities who came to extend their condolences.

Meanwhile, the imams of the Two Holy Mosques yesterday urged Saudis to extend their full support to the new leadership saying it was their religious duty.
