Almost a month after the deadliest pilgrim stampede in Saudi Arabia in 25 years, the authorities there have not given a detailed explanation or a final tally of victims, drawing increased ire from Iran, which lost the most people.

Saudi newspapers reported Monday that the interior minister, Crown Prince Mohammed bin Nayef, who is overseeing a committee investigating the stampede that reportedly killed more than 700 pilgrims, had met with its members Sunday and exhorted them to “continue their efforts to find the causes of the accident, praying to Allah Almighty to accept the martyrs and wishing the injured a speedy recovery.”

The Saudi accounts gave no indication whether the committee was any closer to completing its inquest into the Sept. 24 stampede in a tent city erected in Mina, near an important stop on the annual pilgrimage known as the hajj.

The official death toll remained at 769, despite reports in recent weeks from 30 countries suggesting that the total approached 1,800. The Associated Press, in an updated tally, reported on Monday that at least 2,110 pilgrims had been killed.
