Thousands mourn Iraq stampede dead

Thousands of people in Baghdad and its surroundings flocked to the funerals of nearly 1,000 Shiite pilgrims killed in a mass stampede during a religious procession.

Iraq's Ministry of Interior announced that a total of 953 people had died and 815 were injured in the crush on a bridge in north Baghdad.

Prime Minister Ibrahim al-Jaafari visited Kadhimiya hospital where many of the victims were taken. He was accompanied by the ministers of defence and health.
