"At least 717 people have been killed in a stampede at the annual Hajj pilgrimage,
Saudi Arabia's civil defence directorate said, as the death toll continued to rise.
The directorate said at least 863 other pilgrims were injured in Thursday's stampede, which took place in
Mina, on the outskirts of the holy city of Mecca.
The injured have been evacuated to four different hospitals in the Mina region, according to a civil defence spokesman.
Saudi Arabia's crown prince,
Prince Mohamed bin Nayef, ordered a probe into how the tragedy had occurred.”*
