In Yemen’s capital Sana (stampede in yemen), a stampede of people occurred in a program to distribute financial aid late on Wednesday night. Due to this stampede, at least 78 people died and about dozens of people were injured. According to media reports, at the time of this incident, hundreds of people had gathered in the program of financial assistance.

Yemen’s capital Sanaa (stampede in yemen) Brigadier Abdel-Khaliq al-Aghari, a spokesman for the ministry, said that the main reason behind the stampede was that the matter was not discussed with the top officials and that financial aid was distributed incorrectly. This incident happened just before Eid-ul-Fitr. According to media reports, it was placed in a school in the program of distribution of financial aid. The school has been closed after this incident. Along with this, restrictions have also been imposed on the coming of people.

In this stampede in Sanaa, witnesses there said that in an attempt to control the crowd present at the event, armed Houthis fired in the air. After that the bullet hit the electric wire, which exploded. This created panic and people started going on a rampage, he said. According to media reports, two organizers have been detained and the matter is being investigated. Yemen’s capital has been controlled by the Iranian-backed Houthis since they arrived in 2014 and ousted Yemen’s government.
