Stampede at Madagascar’s national stadium kills 12, injures around 80, prime minister says

ANTANANARIVO, Aug 25 (Reuters) – A stampede of sports fans trying to enter Madagascar’s national stadium for the opening ceremony of the Indian Ocean Island Games has killed 12 and injured around 80, the prime minister said on Friday.
Videos shared on social media showed Red Cross workers caring for dozens of injured people next to the athletics track.
Prime Minister Christian Ntsay said 11 of the injured were in a critical condition.
It was not immediately clear what caused the stampede, but at least 15 people were killed in a similar incident at the Mahamasina stadium in 2019.
