Saudi Arabia’s heir to the throne Crown Prince Sultan bin Abdel Aziz has died abroad after an illness, national TV reported. He was 85 years old.

Hundreds of worried pilgrims crowded around a photo display at a medical centre in Mina, Saudi Arabia, today, scanning anxiously for pictures of loved ones who may have been among the 362 people killed the day before in a deadly stampede.

Some 60% of Saudi Arabians believe their women should be allowed to drive, according to a newspaper poll.
