A Moroccan woman died and 25 others were injured, when a bus carrying Moroccan seasonal workers overturned early on Monday in southern Spain, the emergency services said. The bus carrying 34 Moroccan farm workers from San Juan del Puerto to Huelva overturned just before sunrise some 50 km from the southwestern Andalusian city of Huelva, the emergency services said. “One woman died and 25 others have been injured, including seven in very serious condition, when a bus carrying seasonal workers overturned,” the emergency services said on the regional government’s website. It was not immediately clear what caused the accident in an area known for its vast agriculture industry, Andalusia region being Europe’s top exporter of fruits and vegetables. In a separate statement, medics with the CES emergency services said “34 workers were travelling on the bus; one of them died in the accident, seven others were seriously hurt and 18 others were slightly injured”.
