Two people were killed and 12 others injured after a passenger bus overturned Monday on Regional Road 412 between Chefchaouen and the commune of Derdara, according to local Hespress AR sources.
The bus was traveling from Chefchaouen to Casablanca when the driver reportedly lost control while negotiating a bend, causing the vehicle to overturn down an embankment near Douar Rami in the Derdara commune.
Two people died at the scene, while 12 passengers sustained injuries of varying severity. Three of the injured were reported to be in serious condition and were rushed to Mohammed V Provincial Hospital for treatment. The remaining injured passengers received the necessary medical care.
Following the crash, members of the Royal Gendarmerie’s motorcycle unit in Chefchaouen secured the scene, managed traffic and facilitated the evacuation of the injured to the provincial hospital.
The Royal Gendarmerie has opened an investigation under the supervision of the competent public prosecutor’s office to determine the circumstances, causes and responsibilities surrounding the fatal accident.
