BAGHDAD - At least 31 people died and another 100 were wounded on Tuesday during the Shi’ite Muslim religious rituals of Ashura in the Iraqi city of Kerbala, a Health Ministry spokesman said, offering no details as to how they died. Ashura marks the day when, according to Islamic tradition, the Prophet Mohammed’s grandson Imam Hussein was killed in battle in the year 680. Shi’ite Muslim pilgrims from around the world converge each year on Kerbala, the site of the battle.
Seems like a bad ritual
z_Montana_ آیا در رسانه های شما درمورد عاشورا و عزاداری شیعیان فقط حوادث گفته میشه؟
Tragic 😪
Sadly very less!
Stupid Shiite rituals. 👹
Again the point of a religious gathering?
It is reported that 3 died in Nigeria although through confrontation with the authorities. I hope deaths aren't a normal parts of these rituals
