Shamkhani: Saudi inefficiency bore tragic outcome for Islamic world

Shamkhani said the Mina catastrophe was definitely due to the inefficiency of the Saudi government whose top priority was not the safety of the pilgrims.

Secretary of the Supreme National Security Council Ali Shamkhani said the inefficiency of the Saudi government cost the Islamic world dearly.

He said the Mina catastrophe was definitely due to the inefficiency of the Saudi government whose top priority was not the safety of the pilgrims.

He noted that the Saudi government is focusing on Yemen instead of efficient management of the Hajj ritual.

The official said that the Supreme National Security Council has been closely following the incident from the moment of its occurrence.

He regretted the fact that the Saudi government refused to collaborate with the Iranian medical teams.
