Saudi Arabia will bury King Abdullah Friday, just hours after it moved to ensure a smooth transition by appointing a new king and crown prince to quell fears of dynastic instability at a time of regional turmoil.
King Abdullah, a long-time U.S. ally in the fight against terrorism and Islamic extremism, died Friday.
"In the name of God, a statement by the Royal Diwan (office), with sadness his Highness Salman bin Abdul-Aziz Al Saud and all the members of the royal family, regret to tell you that the King Abdullah bin Abdul-Aziz Al Saud has died at 1 a.m. (23:00 GMT) Friday 3rd/4th/1436 Hijri (Islamic calendar)."
He was believed to have been 90 years old and had been ill for a long while.
His half-brother, Salman, has succeeded him.
The new king vowed in a nationally televised speech Friday to continue the polices of his predecessor.King Salman, thought to be 79, has been crown prince and defense minister since 2012.
King Salman on Friday appointed his son, Mohammed bin Salman, as Saudi Arabia's new defense minister and head of the royal court.The new king also says he will keep most other ministers.
A half-brother of the king, Moqren, was named the new crown prince.
U.S. President Barack Obama offered his personal condolences and the sympathies of the American people to the Saudi people and royal family. Mr. Obama said the king always was candid and had the courage of his convictions, including using the U.S.-Saudi relationship as a force for security and stability.
King Abdullah officially ascended to the throne in 2006. But he had actually ruled since 1995 when his predecessor and half-brother, King Faud, suffered an incapacitating stroke.
Abdullah is believed to have been born in Riyadh in 1924 to an ultra-conservative family in which the traditions and hospitality of Islam were always stressed.
As he grew into adulthood, oil was discovered in the Saudi desert and the country grew into the world's top oil exporter, bringing vast wealth to royal family.
Upon taking control, Abdullah began unprecedented moves to modernize the conservative kingdom.
Women were given a voice in politics and will be allowed to vote in local elections for the first time this year.
He also established a Western-style university where students from both sexes openly mixed and shared classes.
Previously-banned music could be heard on Saudi television and radio.
Abdullah was something of a maverick in his foreign policy. He proposed a peace deal in which Arab League states would recognize Israel if the Palestinians get their own state.
In a leaked U.S. diplomatic note, King Abdullah urged the U.S. military to attack Iran and "cut off the head of the snake," to stop it from building a nuclear weapon.
Saudi Arabia is one of the top suppliers of arms to the rebels fighting to overthrow the Syrian government. It is a leading member of the U.S.-led coalition fighting against Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
Saudi Arabia is part of the G20 economic bloc and the World Trade Organization.
Despite reforms at home and moderation abroad, human rights groups continue to assail Saudi Arabia. They say women are still denied many basic rights.
The king refused to support the Arab Spring movements that toppled dictatorships in Tunisia, Egypt, Libya and Yemen.
