Imagine you're at a temple and some bees get upset.
This happened at a temple in India.

This made everyone panic and try to run away, like a stampede.
Nine people were hurt, and eight of them were from the same family.
They had to go to the hospital.
The temple is near a forest where there are lots of bees, and the temple is working with the authorities to make sure everyone is safe.
