At least 14 people were killed and 51 others injured in a collision between a heavy truck and a bus in northwestern Tunisia on Wednesday, the Interior Ministry said.
The accident occurred on the Kasserine road when the truck skidded due to brake failure and collided first with a bus before hitting a high-voltage-electric pole that fell, causing a dozen cars to catch fire, the ministry said.
The injured have been rushed to local hospitals and rescue operations are underway.
