Forty-six people, including a dozen minors, were killed yesterday after a bus caught fire south of the Bulgarian capital, officials said, in the nation’s deadliest road accident in years.
A cause has yet to be determined, but officials believe a fire broke out on board the tourist bus, which was traveling from Istanbul, Turkey, to Skopje, North Macedonia. It then crashed into guardrails.
There were no other vehicles involved in the accident, which occurred at about 2am on a highway about 40km from Sofia, near the village of Bosnek.
Seven people survived.
“Unfortunately, there are many victims, 46, including 12 minors,”
