Egypt multi-vehicle road crash kills 24
The sources said the collision took place when a bus and a minibus collided southeast of Cairo. At least six other vehicles then rammed into them because fog had lowered visibility on the road and they could not see the crash.
The security sources, speaking on customary condition of anonymity, said the confirmed death toll in the crash was at least 24, although one source put the number of dead at 25.
Reckless driving, lax traffic rules and poor road conditions contribute to many road crashes in Egypt. A series of fatal road and rail accidents in recent years also triggered a public outcry over the government's handling of transport safety.
