A head-on collision between two passenger trains injured 95 people Monday in the south of the Tunisian capital, emergency services said. The number of people injured when two trains collided has risen to 95. One of the trains was not carrying any passengers at the time. "The injured were taken to hospitals and there were no deaths," Moez Triaa, a Civil Defense spokesman told the AFP news agency. Most of the injured suffered bruises or fractures, none of them life-threatening. Many passengers were in shock and around 15 ambulances had been dispatched to treat the wounded or take them to hospital. The collision happened at 9:30 am local time (0830 GMT) in the Jbel Jelloud area, on the approach to a terminus in central Tunis. The cause of the accident was not yet clear and the SNCFT national train company did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Transport Minister Rabi Majidi visited the site of the accident but did not speak to journalists. Tunisia"s aging railway system has seen several deadly crashes in recent years. In recent years, Tunisia had experienced several fatal train accidents. In 2016 at least five people were killed and more than 50 injured. In 2015, at least 18 people were killed when a train crashed into a lorry. The previous year, the North African country experienced one of its worst railway disasters, with 18 people killed when a train hit a lorry and derailed at a level crossing south of the capital because of a signals failure. The country of just under 12 million people also has a poor road safety record, with some 980 deaths and more than 6,500 injuries last year according to the Interior Ministry. — Agencies
