HÀ NỘI – Two people were killed and nine others were injured in a tragic bus accident which occurred earlier today on the Pháp Vân-Cầu Giẽ highway.

Trần Minh Thu, head of police unit No. 7 of the Department of Traffic Police, said the bus was travelling from Ninh Bình Province to Hà Nội when it suddenly overturned.

It had earlier been raining heavily in the area.

At 3.30am on the same day, a truck travelling from Hồ Chí Minh City to Bình Thuận Province collided with a container truck in Xuân Lộc District in Đồng Nai Province. The truck also hit a 16-seater bus moving in the opposite direction.

One woman died on the spot and 10 bus passengers were injured.
