Tragic Bus-Van Collision in Pakistan Claims 20 Lives, Injures 11

A bus in Pakistan collided with a van parked on the shoulder of a highway, causing a fire that killed at least 20 people and injured 11 others. The van was carrying fuel drums, which contributed to the inferno. The bus was carrying over 40 passengers, many of whom were badly burned. The drivers of both vehicles died in the accident. Initial investigations suggest that the bus driver was negligent and hit the parked vehicle from behind. Accidents are common on Pakistan's highways due to safety standards being ignored and traffic regulations violated.
