Part 3/9:
The Nera Kor Stadium, where the disaster occurred, is notably different from typical football stadiums. The sandy, dusty grounds played an essential role in the unfolding of events. Images from the day depict a lively atmosphere, but they also later reveal the chaos that ensued, especially at the stadium's main gate, which became the site of one of the crushes. The gate was visibly contorted, having been pushed violently outwards amidst the pandemonium.
