World Cup hosts Qatar accused of under-reporting deaths in Gulf’s killer heat – BBC News


Allegations that Qatar is underreporting the number of migrant workers who have died of heat stroke have been revealed.

Across the Gulf, extreme heat is affecting more-and-more people, especially millions of migrant workers who go there to support their families back home.

Temperatures that go above 50C, thanks to climate change, can leave workers with life-altering illnesses including heart failure.

The Qatar Government did not respond when asked to comment.
