Twenty people were killed and 61 others injured following a crash between a cash-in-transit armoured van and a bus in South Africa’s Limpopo province.
The bus rolled off a bridge into a river below landing on its side at around 20:00 on Monday, local media reported.
Most of the victims reportedly died after being trapped inside the bus.
The cause of the crash is under investigation.
There have been heavy rains in the area. Emergency services were still on the scene on Tuesday morning, with heavy downpours delaying their work.
