Dream - The number of hajj pilgrims who died in Saudi Arabia reached 1,000 people. The main cause of hajj pilgrims' deaths is generally triggered by extreme hot weather.
According to Middle East Eye, the total number of hajj pilgrims who died from 10 countries reached 1,081 people. The latest report states that 58 hajj pilgrims from Egypt died on Thursday, June 20, 2024.
"51 Degrees Celsius"
National meteorological center reported that the highest temperature this week in Mecca reached 51.8 degrees Celsius. According to a study conducted in Saudi Arabia and published last month, the temperature in the region has been increasing by 0.4 degrees Celsius per decade.
From the 1,000 deceased hajj pilgrims, the majority came from Egypt with 658 deaths. Around 630 of those who died from Egypt were unofficially registered hajj pilgrims.
"Saudi Arabia has not provided information regarding casualties, despite reporting over 2,700 cases of heat exhaustion last week."
Last year, various countries reported more than 300 deaths during the Hajj pilgrimage, with the majority being Indonesian citizens. This hot temperature also caused many bodies of pilgrims to be allegedly abandoned on the streets. These bodies are believed to have died as a result of heat stroke following extreme weather of over 50 degrees Celsius.
The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any html tags: "Director General of Hajj and Umrah Services (PHU) of the Ministry of Religious Affairs, Hilman Latief, confirmed that the viral video circulating about hajj pilgrims who were allegedly found dead on the streets did not originate from Indonesia. "Indeed, there are hajj pilgrims who have passed away, but our pilgrims who have passed away are being handled properly by the health team," said Hilman, on Friday, June 17, 2024."
