A top official linked to Qatar’s World Cup organization has estimated that as many as 500 migrant workers died while building the $200 billion tournament complex in Doha – a much higher number than previously stated.
Al-Thawadi’s estimate was a steep jump from Doha’s previous statistics, which cited 40 worker deaths related to building the stadiums. Thirty-seven of these fatalities were deemed non-work-related, while one report claimed another casualty was due to COVID-19. Al-Thawadi reportedly mentioned this original number earlier in the interview, before giving the higher death toll for all the sites.
