a densely packed crowd dancing ecstatically at the annual loch homer celebration. authorities believe overcrowding is likely to blame for the fatalities and injuries . that rescue workers say many of the dead were either trampled to death or suffocated. just finished through israel's worst. terrible disaster of. celebrating their 3rd sure. it was the 1st large scale religious gathering to be held legally since israel lifted most coronavirus restrictions. but despite israel's successful handling of the pandemic health authorities had warned against holding a gathering of this size. to lug religious festival is particularly popular with

israel's ultra orthodox community. israeli police report nearly 100000 people attended the gathering which they say is 4 to 5 times as many as should have been in a location like this. joining us now from jerusalem it is correspondent tanya kramer tania why did this happen. well more details are now of course coming in that one is on the social media these videos but also i witness have been talking here to the local media and from rescue services now the rescue service has said that the crash started to happen this time peter around 1 am in the early morning local time in the middle of the night when people started to go through a very small pathway that apparently has been closed in with metal now there

they were trying to go it was a little bit up. and slipping on the stairs and then started basically to fall over just basically people trampling each other when i did misses when i witness said there was no place to go people were just falling on each other and the 1st calls for help were also received by them some had said you know because of the barry is very around you know the crowd was just not able to go anywhere when this happened and what are the biggest challenges now because i mean we've seen the death toll in the dozens already we understand that rescue workers are you know trying trying to do their best in the area right now what are they facing. well it's a very difficult terrain and of course you know there where tens of thousands of people now you have to understand this is a major religious festival and it's meant to be

a joyous you know people going there from the also orthodox community you know to rejoice at life to sell upright to dance now last year this event was mainly restricted because of the coronavirus pandemic this year was the 1st time they could gather but it was still in a way much smaller crowd than in the years before so of course it's a bit the question what happened there what kind of restrictions were put them place and now what we're seeing now is all the injured you know we're talking about 160 people that were injured back here to 2 hospitals but some of them are in critical condition and what also is going on of course people look for their loved ones families. still you know there's a hotline now that people can call it sometimes also a bit difficult and they also dogs community with social media not everybody has access to that so people are trying you know to get

a hold of what happened and also we're hearing from rescue services a lot of children were separated from their parents so these are all the challenges to have to touch a lot of art it's a celebration considered to be one of the most important as in the orthodox community as we've been hearing what was different this year could this have been prevented. well this is exactly the questions that are being asked now and this is part of course of the investigation that is going on as you heard i mean the you know there where in previous years before a covert 19 before the pandemic there were even more people there so what has happened where there are other restrictions being put in place and a lot of questions are being asked about this past where you know where this all started and of course also the political blame game has already started you know who is responsible for that also people are looking at the communication where it's

a rescue they were calling out and now it's because in hebrew and a lot of people the 2 other understand you dish them hebrew so all of this will be part of the investigation but the focus right now is to see you know there critically injured people and to get a family back together again. to see to get people evacuated tanya kramer reporting from israel thank you tanya. there are some other stories from around the world in hong kong for democracy activists have heated guilty to charges of illegal assembly for a rally in june of last year jailed activist joshua wang was among them tens of thousands of people gathered on june the 4th to commemorate the 1909 crackdown on protesters in beijing's tiananmen square. at least 13 people have been killed in fighting on the frontier between the central asian nations of tajikistan and

a bed in so many hospitals in delhi and. across india oxygen is still in desperately short supply. in the capital delhi volunteers from the sikh community have set up an oxygen center in a car park. good lord people are suffering as begging for oxygen we arranged for cylinders from anywhere we could we stayed in queues for a whole nights and sometimes got beaten up by the police. or. russia is the latest country to join an international relief effort. actually that is being worked on all putting off i would see. india being or putting off. the assistance from various countries or for the countries have actually committed to provide us with many of the items that we need most urgently. india is

the world's biggest producer of vaccines. but these 2 are lacking as people scramble to get their shot. was coming because something. was. there that. despite all this millions have been voting in the state of west bengal the infection rate there is the highest since the pandemic began. political parties have been criticize. holding credit election rallies just when india is recording the deadliest days so far for any country during the pandemic. and our very own armory to chima is standing by in delhi where she is bureau chief how are people coping. so the situation is atypical terrible numbers coming out of

india and not a record spike in the number of new infections that was a to pretty rate in india across india is 21 percent in delhi it's 20 percent and in guo which is a tourist trap it's 50 percent in the positivity rate means that the distant number of people who test positive in relation to those who are being tested so that is a very high number and most of the virus is spreading to different states in southern india carried no one really but in the 1st search is now showing a huge spike in numbers and risk being gored especially at the city of calcutta showing a huge surge and that's when some of these election rallies. in delhi we are seeing record numbers of deaths that oxygen is still running on some of the smaller it is 2 and. night and the high court of delhi has got involved it's criticised the indian government the central government and saying why isn't it increasing the supply of oxygen to the city of danny that's

a really big question now you know how to get the situation under control of course vaccination is a big part of that as well we understand that some vaccination centers have closed because of a shortage of vaccines and you have every adult in india can fear radically get a job for from tomorrow how should all of this work. when to do a deal to do 20 people over the age of 45 could well it is the fascination as of tomorrow as you mention every advantage with the digital maximization vaccinations function here in india a certain tortilla or vaccines are sent by the central government to different states and the rest the states themselves have to pick euro on their real and many of the states suddenly find themselves in a position that they have no vaccines so you have states saying that they have to eat intimidate the expansion of the maximization dry for people over 18 and sound have shut down vaccination for example that's what moved by the city of mumbai

which is also a badly hit is saying it's going to stop all vaccination but 3 days to larry but to get more supplies this of course is a huge setback for the indian government because it was hoping its next an issue drive would have great big chain of transmission and bring down numbers and take some of the pressure. off the big beleaguered infrastructure and get set back up on a time when we have to say the government of prime minister narendra modi is severely criticized for mismanaging even denying this crisis what is the approach now. well the gunman seems it's doing all it can the prime minister has 20 some 21 meetings of the last 2 weeks to deal with this challenge he has another big meeting today with his council. which now the critics say all this comes to your late and why didn't they got nuclear act why didn't the government dictate bice. speech back in november saying things like nice might run out of us but for that to

be the right kind of. wind the government didn't anticipate. like the government is not getting the economy to criticism criticism coming to seize them but. all. of the negative media narrative they're being asked to explain that even government's position and the indian government's position is that given the city off the seconds given the deadly nature of the finest double mutants and variance it's baby if people any government let alone a government a country the size of india to deal with this crisis. delhi bureau chief with the view from there thank you so much for filling us in. and we will have much more on the situation in india coming up in our special coverage in just a few hours time but 1st in turkey the country has entered full lockdown it's
