Spain train crash in Toledo kills 46 people

At least 46 people died on Wednesday after two high-speed trains collided in Spain's central province of Toledo, leading to the suspension of rail services connecting Madrid with Ciudad Real and Andalusia.

Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez expressed shock over the incident, noting that emergency services were working on the ground to assist victims and ensure safety.

Ministry of Transport sources indicated that human error by a worker repairing a signalling system in Urda likely caused the crash by failing to warn an AVE train about an approaching Iryo train.
