A French-Moroccan family of six lost five of its members in a horrific traffic accident in Spain on [Tuesday].

According to the Moroccan press agency, the accident took place in the Pancorbo municipality in the region of Burgos, where the family’s car collided with a truck on the road.

Pictures published online by Spanish authorities show the damaged car after the horrific accident.

The Moroccan family included a mother, aged 32, and her three children, aged nine, seven, and three, and their Moroccan grand-mother, aged 60. All five were killed during the tragic incident.

The father, a French national, was the only member of the family to stay alive. He was taken to the hospital of Miranda de Ebro.
