"Mina Stampede 2015" Collection, Art work No.2 Photograph - Limited Edition of 1

On 24 September 2015, an overcrowding situation caused the reported death of at least 1834 pilgrims who were suffocated or crushed during the annual Hajj pilgrimage in Mina, Mecca. Based on reports cited in the table below ("Nationalities of the victims"), it was the deadliest crowd crush disaster to occur in modern history. The incident happened at the intersection of streets 204 and 223 leading up to Jamaraat Bridge. The official Saudi figures, unchanged since two days after the event, record at least 769 killed with 934 others injured. However, other sources have estimated the death toll to be much higher.In particular, the Associated Press says that the death toll at minimum stands at 1,621 as of 14 October 2015, making it the deadliest hajj disaster in history.The total death toll could potentially exceed 3000 since over 1200 pilgrims are still missing, almost a month after the incident.
