"This is too much to bear. May their souls RIP" Citizens react, as the crowded Halloween festivities death toll reached 120
The death toll has reached at least 120 during crowded Halloween festivities in South Korea’s capital of Seoul.
Here are some the reactions from people around the world
- Editor, no more negative updates on this terrible incident. Next updates should be about the injured recovering and leaving the hospitals.
- This is too much to bear. May their souls RIP. And quick recovery for the injured.
- What an absolute tragedy!
- 100,000 people in the narrow and steep streets of Itaewon. People seemingly tangled like wires. Some drunk, some possibly high, some completely oblivious of what's going on... Utterly devastating!! Heartbreaking!!
- Very tragic, it's a "crowd surge", the streets in the Itaewon district are too narrow to handle hundreds of thousands of people. Prayers for the lost souls and their families.
- I once joined a protest in my country and was almost hit by a gas grenade. People panicked and started pushing around. I tend to stay out of crowded areas because I know how dangerous it can be when people start to panic.
- It is one of the most horrible disasters in my life. Most of the dead people are 20-30‘s of age. Korean people hv been panicked and already being suffered from PTSD by the scenes of SNS, which is continueously provided without filtering.
- What can we say about this painful catastrophe… Korean people may not be able to go to sleep for tonight.
- Wow! What happened? I remember this place. I visited this place before and I was even shopping here in this place. That's sad.
- What a tragedy, may the injured heal faster and the bereaved be comforted. Haloween is a demonic festival sponsored by illuminati
- Thanks God my daughter decided not to go with her friends . Sad , many of them very very young , students from different countries 😢!
