A tie of celebrations and laughter has turned into a time of horror as at least 330 people are currently being reported as dead after a human stampede during the Cambodia festival.
Large crowds going into a panic on a bridge proved to be just the right mixture for tragedy. Some reports are saying that over two thirds of the people who died are women.
I can’t even begin to accurately express how much this news makes me sad. Any human loss of life is bad enough, but so many during a time that should be happy…
The Cambodian prime minister has declared that Thursday will be an official day of mourning.
