At least 25 people died and 44 others were injured when a bus fell into a deep ravine in Algeria on Friday. The provisional report on the fatalities and injuries came from the Algerian Civil Protection.
The bus was traveling from Sétif to the capital city of Algiers when it skidded off the road in El Karma, a locality approximately 30 miles from Algiers. The vehicle subsequently plunged into the ravine.
Rescue teams were on site, and ambulances were seen transporting the injured to nearby hospitals. Algerian President Abdelmadjid Tebboune has ordered three days of national mourning following the incident, according to state television.
