Morocco’s Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs announced on Friday that there have been no “unusual deaths” among Moroccan pilgrims during the current Hajj season, with a total of 20 recorded deaths so far.
A statement from the ministry clarified that these deaths occurred both within the official organization and travel agencies, a figure similar to last year’s Hajj season.
Over the past twenty years, the annual number of deaths among Moroccan pilgrims has ranged between 30 and 45.
The statement emphasized that this year’s deaths are attributed to natural causes, noting that 15% of Moroccan pilgrims this year are over eighty years old.
