At least 11 people have died and more than 30 others have been injured after a serious road accident in western Mexico.
According to authorities, a tourist bus carrying passengers from the state of Jalisco veered off the road and overturned near the town of Amatlán de Cañas, in the state of Nayarit. The causes of the accident remain unclear.
Initially, six people were found dead at the scene, while five others later died in hospital as a result of their injuries.
Fatal road accidents are common in Mexico. Last September, at least 10 people were killed and more than 60 others were injured when a freight train crashed into a bus in central Mexico. In February 2025, more than 40 people died in the south of the country when a bus traveling from Tabasco to Cancún collided with a truck and burst into flames.
