MAKKAH: Locusts have invaded every region across the Kingdom. The insects have arrived from nearby countries, which have struggled to limit the spread of the ginormous swarms.
Saudi authorities have doubled the daily aerial sprayings to combat the locusts.
Mohammad Al-Shammrani, director of combating locusts and plagues at the Ministry of Environment, Agriculture and Water, told Arab News that the swarms came from East Africa.
Red locusts can be ferocious and eat crops.
