“Utmost care is given to the blessed Zamzam water. The pumping of water out of the well is being monitored regularly,” a presidency spokesman told Arab News.
He added random samples were constantly taken from the well and checked to make sure that the water was fit for human consumption. “We also take samples from the containers and check them,” it added.
The presidency asked citizens and foreigners to ensure that holy water was being hygienically stored, as leaving it in the sun could contaminate it.
The blessed water is pumped out of the historic well via stainless steel pipes and filtered using ultraviolet technology. It is then transported to the cooling stations before it is distributed.
