At least 39 people have died and 152 were injured in a train collision in Spain, near Adamuz in Andalusia, where two high-speed trains collided. Video from the scene shows rescuers working and passengers exiting the wreckage. The Minister of Transport warned that the number of deaths may increase. The Spanish Prime Minister is traveling to the site of the accident. The private company Iryo, which owned one of the trains, announced that the last inspection had been carried out on Thursday. The collision was so severe that the first two carriages of one of the trains derailed. Among the dead is the driver of the train that had departed from Madrid.
