Saudi Arabia; dead bodies bulldozed, crushed survivors eventually killed

saIn what’s happening with disturbing regularity, hundreds and hundreds of Muslim pilgrims are killed during the once in a lifetime required Hajj to Mecca.

As one eyewitness who requested to remain anonymous stated, “There were layers of bodies, maybe three layers. Some people were alive under the pile of bodies and were trying to climb up but in vain, because their strength failed and they dropped dead.” Daytime temperatures in Mecca at the time was 105°F (40.5°C).

Hakim, from Morocco, said: “It is simply scary to hear how people crushed one another. More frightening is that we do not know how it happened.” An anonymous Algerian told his nation’s al-Shurouk television: “We saw death: People were stepping…
