A mass stampede in a central district of the capital Seoul led to the dispatch of emergency teams and a significant preparation in the hospitals • The authorities reported resuscitation operations on at least 50 people


South Korean President Yoon Seok-yul ordered the dispatch of emergency medical teams to the center of the capital, Seoul, after dozens of people lost consciousness during Halloween celebrations in the country today (Saturday), apparently due to overcrowding.  

Overcrowding is a disaster in Seoul / Social networks

According to the fire authorities in the country, resuscitation operations were performed on at least 50 people as of around midnight local time.

Local media reported at least two deaths. 

It is not clear what caused the heavy crowding, but it seems that a huge gathering of revelers in one of the most central districts of the capital caused the collapse of the infrastructure and the security arrangements that were supposed to regulate the traffic. 

The president said that in light of the dire reports, hospitals in the country should be prepared accordingly in order to lower the number of deaths as much as possible.
