Between 400 and 500 workers died building infrastructure for 2022 World Cup, Qatar officials say

DOHA, Qatar A top Qatari official involved in the country's World Cup organization has put the number of worker deaths for the tournament "between 400 and 500" for the first time, a drastically higher number than any other previously offered by Doha.

But that figure hasn't been discussed publicly by Qatari officials previously. Reports from the Supreme Committee dating from 2014 through the end of 2021 only include the number of deaths of workers involved in building and refurbishing the stadiums now hosting the World Cup. In a later statement, the Supreme Committee said al-Thawadi was referring to "national statistics covering the period of 2014-2020 for all work-related fatalities nationwide in Qatar, covering all sectors and nationalities."As the USA and Iran go head-to-head in the World Cup on Tuesday afternoon, Christopher Harris with World Soccer Talk spoke with LiveNOW from FOX's Josh Breslow about the odds of a USA victory.

If that’s what they admit to, it’s probably 2 - 3 thousand.

Add a 0 to the end of those numbers and that would be more truthful

Now do Amazon, construction, meat plants, here at home. Perspective:

I heard 6,000+ died in total, doubt the WC committee paid for any funerals

At least it was worth it and everyone learned something about human decensy

Usually it’s 1 per stadium. That’s a large number

Poor people they prob got nothing

That means it was at least 800 or more.

God rest their souls 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

Qatar says worker deaths for World Cup 'between 400 and 500'A top Qatari official involved in the country's World Cup organization has put the number of worker deaths for the tournament “between 400 and 500” for the first time, a drastically higher number than any other previously offered by Doha. The comment by Hassan al-Thawadi, the secretary-general of Qatar's Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy, appeared to come off the cuff during an interview with British journalist Piers Morgan. It also threatened to reinvigorate criticism by human rights groups over the toll of hosting the Middle East's first World Cup for the migrant labor that built over $200 billion worth of stadiums, metro lines and new infrastructure needed for the tournament. Wow! Just wow!
