The Indian Embassy in Saudi Arabia tweeted, calling for aid for the pilgrims “@hajmission please urgently look in to the matter and provide all assistance to the pilgrims.”

Regrettably such incidents of this nature have occurred before. This shows that there is a need for more security during Hajj as indicated by 2015 stampede in Mina where over 2000 people lost their lives.
This is breaking news and we will update as we learn more.
