According to media reports, people were injured in a stampede as they rushed to the station near Lusail Boulevard to catch the last trains before the subway closed for the night.

Emergency medical teams were reportedly called to the site. Videos posted on X purportedly show doctors treating the injured in the subway station following the stampede.

The local authorities have not yet commented on the incident. There is no exact information on the number of injuries.
