    Despite Warning Signs of a Deadly Crowd Crush,

    S.Korean Officials Didn’t Act ; 2022.11.17

    An analysis, based on Official Documents and Parliamentary Testimony,

    reveals a series of missed opportunities to prevent a disaster

    that led to the DEATH of more than 150 PEOPLE in SEOUL (City).

    A few days after the Itaewon disaster, a crowd gathered

    near City Hall in Seoul to mourn the victims and protest

    the official failures that allowed the deadly event to happen.

    Less than a dozen police officers (S.KR) were in the area until 8 p.m., almost an hour and a half after the first call for help. Emergency dispatchers directed officers to street fights and other lesser incidents, while officials monitoring surveillance cameras didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary.

    Investigation by S.Korea Citizen Reporter for New York Times Newspaper (USA).
