Saudi rescue teams left Mina wounded to die suffering: Ayatollah Araki
“Saudis were at least expected to deliver drinking water to the wounded pilgrims,” Ayatollah Araki said, speaking to the official news website of the Center of Supervision on Mosques Affairs.
His eminence noted that hundreds died of thirst because, according to him, “no rescue helicopter was sent to simply supply dying bodies with water.”
Ayatollah Araki accused Saudi Police and Rescue teams of negligent, adding: “Saudi rescue teams left the wounded pilgrims to die suffering.”
He also demanded the international organizations to investigate the tragic incident.
