Train Collision in Spain Leads to Dozens of Casualties
A railway disaster in the province of Córdoba has become one of the most severe in Spain in recent years and has raised questions about traffic safety and infrastructure oversight.
An incident involving two trains in southern Spain has disrupted the regional transport system and resulted in significant loss of life. The accident occurred on a railway section in the province of Córdoba, where one train derailed and entered the opposite track.
According to preliminary data, after derailing the train moved onto the adjacent line, leading to a collision with another train traveling in the opposite direction. As a result, both trains partially derailed. Emergency services, rescue teams, and medical crews were deployed at the scene.
Authorities reported at least 21 fatalities. Around 30 other people sustained serious injuries and were taken to hospitals in the region. Medical facilities were placed on high alert, and some patients were transferred to major clinics.
The causes of the accident have not been officially announced. Possible factors under consideration include technical malfunction, track conditions, and potential errors in traffic control. Specialists are examining data from onboard systems and infrastructure, as well as testimony from personnel.
The incident may affect railway schedules in the region and lead to a review of safety measures. Until the investigation is completed, traffic on the affected section remains restricted, and authorities have promised to provide additional explanations following the review.
