ISLAMABAD: At least eight infants died allegedly at the District Headquarters Hospital in Vehari in Pakistan due to lack of oxygen in the ICU, Pakistan's Geo News reported.

Families of the children protested against the hospital administration over the deaths.

But a medical superintendent said that empty oxygen cylinders were immediately replaced.
