A crowd crush at a football match in Guinea has caused multiple casualties, the country’s prime minister has confirmed, with one social media video showing fans scrambling to get out of a packed stadium.

At least 56 people have been killed in a crush at a football match in Guinea's second-largest city, Nzérékoré, the government says.

A stampede at a football match dedicated to Guinea's junta chief killed at least 56 people, the government said Monday, as the opposition accused the military-led authorities of being "directly responsible" for the tragedy.
