Massive swarm of bees tears through school leaving at least 32 students in hospital

Dozens of students were injured after a swarm of enraged bees attacked a school, with teachers and children fleeing in terror. 

At least 32 students were left needing treatment after the swarm descended upon Ramachandra Nodal High School, a government-run school near the Indian town of Kendrapara on the Bay of Bengal. 

The school was reportedly holding an annual event at the time of the attack. 

The insects had established a two-foot-long colony in a tree on the school grounds but had remained peaceful until the day of the school event. 

One teacher said that the bees became agitated after a group of monkeys disturbed their hive. 

The furious swarm tore through the school grounds stinging more than 32 students and several teachers, spreading panic among those gathered for the celebration. 

The injured students were rushed to a community health center (CHC) in Derabish for treatment.
