18 dead and at least 10 injured after a stampede at a New Delhi railway station has left 18 people dead and at least 10 injured. Four of the victims were children and 10 were women, according to a list released by local officials.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, in a reaction to the tragedy, wrote on "X" that his thoughts were with all those who have lost their loved ones.
It all seems to have been caused by delays to two trains, which then led to more people gathering waiting at the station.
The BBC reports that it was the crush by the crowd that caused the tragedy.
Such events occur regularly in India, where there is a high concentration of people at religious events, festivals and public spaces.
The incident comes weeks after 30 people lost their lives at the religious festival, Kumbh Mela, in northern India, where tens of millions of Hindus had gathered to bathe in the waters of sacred rivers.
