Egypt’s Health Ministry now counts at least seven dead and more than 112 injured in the train collision in Giza province.
A train traveling between Giza and Fayoum ran into the back of another on the Cairo-to-Aswan route, causing the latter to derail onto a countryside road in the district of al-Ayyat. More than 70 ambulances took part in the rescue and evacuation of casualties, who were taken to nearby hospitals.
