Burning Bus Kills 30 Along Masvingo Road 

At least 15 passengers managed to escape through the windows, while the injured were rushed to Mvuma District Hospital and Driefontein Mission Hospital.

By late last night, police were still guarding the shell of the bus, with the charred remains of some of the passengers. Police were also controlling traffic as the burning vehicles blocked the road.

About 30 passengers traveling to South Africa in a Proliner bus died after their bus was involved in an accident with a haulage truck at Nyamatikiti River along Masvingo road.

Writing on Facebook a witness said: “Nobody could help. The bodies were burnt to ashes. The accident took place around 8 or 9 pm. It is traumatising to witness such an event and this is a loud call for immediate further development of the road into dual carriageway. The lives that have been lost along this road have become too many to ignore.” - The Herald
