He was briefed on the training area at the center, which includes administrative support, operations and the Command and Control Center (CCC).

Prince Mohammed was also briefed by Lt. Col. Ibrahim bin Abdullah Al-Qahtani about the CCC’s work mechanism and its role in ensuring security integration among sectors, and coordination between participating and supporting sectors.

Supervisor of the training exercises, Gen. Said bin Abdullah Al-Qahtani, said serving guests at the holy places is an honor the forces are proud of, and they are ready to sacrifice their lives to that end.

“Our forces live up to that responsibility, and to the honor shown by our supreme commander, King Salman bin Abdulaziz, knowing that history will record their heroism and sacrifices in the face of terrorism and criminal gangs,” he said.

Director of Public Security Gen. Osman bin Nasir Al-Muhraj thanked Prince Mohammed for patronizing the event.

Al-Muhraj said the exercises implemented by security forces from different sectors showed their high level of professionalism.

“The applications are concrete evidence of the distinguished level of training reached by the Kingdom’s security personnel in dealing with different incidents and in working to support justice, deter aggression and protect the homeland, its holy sites, citizens and residents,” he said.

The crown prince and attendees witnessed applications and operations carried out by participating forces, including armed attacks on a residential complex, petrochemical facility and diplomatic quarter, as well as prison riots and a raid on a farm taken over by terrorists in a border area.

The Tawakkalna application developed by Saudi Arabia's National Information Centre to processes requests for movement permits during the curfew to curb the spread of the virus has become a major helplnine for past few weeks. 

The application developed through the close cooperation between the Ministry of Health and the Saudi Data and Artificial Intelligence Authority (SDAIA) was launched on May 4.

According to Saudi Telecom Group, it handles 20,000 calls daily through the Tawakkalna platform by dedicating a call centre of 600 employees through its Contact Centre Company (CCC). 

The Tawakkalna app can be used to issue e-permits for a selected group of government and private sector employees who were exempted from the curfew, and individuals who have medical appointments as well as couriers.

Tawakkalna has features for the service of citizens and residents, for ensuring their safety and comfort that would contribute to facilitating the access of authorized persons to travel permits.

The official page about Tawakkalna on Twitter, says: “You must always keep in mind that pinpointing your exact location of residence is the only way for you to benefit from the app’s range of services and permits.”

The app will also provide the latest alerts and medical news issued by the Ministry of Health about the virus as well as about its spread, ways to prevent it and movement permits.

Tawakkalna can be used for self-disclosure for people who show signs of coronavirus infection and for requesting ambulance service and other important services for the community.

Through the app users can apply for a one-hour permit for a walk in the neighborhood on a daily basis, thereby encouraging walking during this period of lockdown.
