Around 1.8 million pilgrims performed Hajj over Eid Al Adha this year, with tens of thousands completing the final circumambulation of the Kaaba in Makkah on Wednesday.

Saudi Arabia has not issued any official death toll, but several individual countries have announced the numbers of their citizens who died.

Indonesia's health ministry reported that 144 pilgrims died on Hajj this year, without specifying their cause of death.
