At least 87 people have been killed and 183 others injured after a crane collapsed in Mecca's Grand Mosque on Friday, Saudi Arabia's civil defence authority says.
Al Jazeera's Hasan Patel, reporting from Mecca, said witnesses told him that a crane fell on the third floor of the Grand Mosque around 5.45pm.
Our correspondent said the mosque was packed, even though the incident happened shortly before the 6.30pm prayer.
