A number of participants were injured during the running of the bulls event in Pamplona, Spain, as part of the annual San Fermin festival. Among those affected was a man who fell at a critical moment, resulting in a dangerous encounter with the bulls. Several individuals sustained serious goring injuries amid the chaos on the streets and within the bullring.

The San Fermin festival, held in the northern Spanish city of Pamplona, attracts runners from around the world who take part in the traditional bull runs. The event involves participants running alongside bulls through designated streets, culminating in the bullring where the animals are later fought and killed.

Animal rights organizations have long criticized the festival, describing it as cruel and barbaric due to both the danger posed to human participants and the treatment of the animals. Despite these concerns, the event continues to draw significant crowds each year, maintaining its status as a prominent cultural tradition in Spain. Emergency personnel remain on site during the runs to provide immediate medical assistance to those injured.
