Pilgrimage and Endowment Organization said on Tuesday that three female pilgrims who had been missing since the incident happened on Friday have been confirmed dead. Following the latest news, the number of Iranians killed in the accident is now 11.
More than 100 people have been killed in the incident, which happened after a tower crane was toppled by strong winds and storm in the city, crashing into the Grand Mosque ahead of the start of the annual Hajj pilgrimage later this month.
