At least 45 people were confirmed dead and 150 people were injured, with dozens in serious condition and several in critical.
‘’There were heartbreaking scenes here. People were crushed to death, including children. Many of the victims have still not been identified and I would like to avoid the dissemination of rumors on social media because this breaks the families’ hearts. Let the authorities work,’’ said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who visited the site.
It remains unclear the specific cause of the disaster, Magen David Adom said the tragedy was likely caused by overcrowding at a narrow pass at the prayer compound.
