A passenger bus crashed in Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula on Wednesday, killing at least 22 people, including Egyptians and Jordanians, according to authorities. The incident occurred in the desert region, where the bus overturned after losing control. Emergency services responded quickly but were unable to save all victims.
The crash involved a group of tourists, with reports indicating the bus was carrying both Egyptian and Jordanian nationals. At least 28 others were injured and taken to nearby medical facilities for treatment. Officials from both countries are investigating the cause of the accident, which is believed to have occurred on a remote road.
Authorities have not yet released details on the exact location or the speed at which the bus was traveling. The Sinai Peninsula, known for its rugged terrain and limited infrastructure, has seen several transportation-related incidents in recent years.
The victims’ families are awaiting further information from the investigation, which is expected to provide more details in the coming days.
