Sheikh Rashid bin Abdullah Al-Khalifa recently conducted a joint inspection of the King Fahd Causeway, which connects Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. During their visit, they were welcomed by local officials, including the Deputy Governor of Eastern Province
The focus of the inspection was on ongoing development projects aimed at enhancing cross-border travel efficiency. This includes expanding processing facilities to accommodate more travelers, which is crucial for boosting trade and tourism between the two nations.
