At least seven people were killed and eleven others injured when a passenger bus collided with a truck on the Adana-Gaziantep highway in southern Turkey early Saturday, according to local authorities. The crash occurred about 90 kilometers west of Gaziantep, causing severe damage to the front of the bus. The governor’s office confirmed that all victims were passengers on the bus, and identification efforts are ongoing. State news agency Anadolu reported that the bus’s tire burst after hitting the truck. The truck driver survived the incident and has been detained for questioning. Police temporarily closed the highway to clear the wreckage and investigate the cause. Authorities have not yet released details on the cause of the collision, though early reports suggest driver error or mechanical failure may be factors. Road safety remains a major concern in Turkey, where fatal traffic accidents occur frequently despite ongoing government efforts to improve highway conditions.
