in the crush of people. it's one of the deadliest stadium tragedies in modern history. they doubly jakarta bureau chief killed matters is following this story. he updated us on the sequence of the bench that led to so many dix. absolutely. okay, arctic seems what we heard from eyewitnesses but also from the police here in chicago. 1 at this football stadium in milan in easter eastern java. so what initially happened is that the fans of the losing home team storm to the pitch started a riot in which 2 police officers got subsequently killed. and that is when police opened fire with tear gas firing, also into the tribute and then causing a mass panic. 2 which led to a stampede, where all these people got killed, including unfortunately 17 children and 2 groups at poor kick you.

what are the police saying about what happened? one of the, the fans sang about have this happened while the count of this is pretty much the same, but the, the police has, has point of, interestingly enough that the finger is at the a reach at the indonesian football association at the regional police chief is being quoted here in local media to say that the football association has been negligent for not informing security. press security forces that the procedures at a soccer match for using tear gas are different from those at a demonstration. and of course, that is something that on twitter many indonesians find outraging that the security forces should of course know how to handle a situation like that. and aside from the violence key oak, it is crowd control it at intonation sporting events and large events. is that an

issue or has it been in the past? and is that now leading to pressure on the authorities here to provide a more detailed account of their response to this situation? i think the lack of the experience here for on the part of the police already tells us that that is something they don't have a lot of experience in this sort of big form of rights. or what i have been told is that hooliganism is a fairly recent thing. it's been building up in recent years, but it hasn't reached a stage like this one before. also a big problem was that the stadium was filled way over capacity. that is a common problem you face in indonesia where things tend to get extremely crowded, more than the security would allow. the deadliest joke matters in jakarta, thanks so much or ukrainian president thought mister lensky says there will be more
