Breaking-News >> TodayHistory On November 28, 1995, a tragedy took place at a stadium in India
Thirty years ago today, on November 28, 1995 (October 7, 1995 in the lunar calendar), a tragedy occurred at a stadium in India. On November 28, 1995, spectators watching the cricket match between India and New Zealand in Nagpur, India, left the stadium at noon and went home for dinner when the wall of a stand suddenly collapsed, causing a tragedy. At least 9 people were killed and more than 50 others were injured. The official in charge of the stadium said that at that time, a 3-meter-high part of the second wall of the East Stand suddenly collapsed, and someone immediately fell from above and fell to the ground 15 meters below. Three spectators, including a 23-year-old woman, were killed or fell to their deaths on the spot by fragments of the wall. They said that it may have been due to the simultaneous activities of more than 3,000 spectators on the upper floor, which made the already weak wall more loose and finally completely collapsed. The scene was horrific. The bloodstains under the stands were shocking, and personal belongings lost by the audience were everywhere. At that time, there were 45,000 spectators at the scene, and more than 100 cricket fans were sitting on the wall. The stadium will host the World Cup cricket match between Australia and Zimbabwe next year. News raw data sources → https://www.abtool.cn/today_detail/1c94.html 17WorldNews[2025.09.11-20:02] 访问:75
