Rumours circulating about the collapse of a hotel in Makkah have been denied by the Saudi Civil Defence.

The event was actually a mock-drill held to verify the civil defence's readiness in case of an emergency. The No-Rumours handle informed the public about the truth of the situation and pinpointed that the "lack of information" cited by the original video maker was invalid.   
The video of the so-called collapse was tweeted out a few days ago.
