Train wrecks and mishaps are common in Egypt, where the railway system has a history of badly maintained equipment and mismanagement.
A passenger train derailed Sunday north of Cairo, killing 11 and injuring at least 98 people, Egyptian authorities said. It was the latest of several rail accidents to hit the country in recent years. Four train wagons ran off the railway at the city of Banha in Qalyubia province, just north of Cairo, the railway authority said in a statement. Videos on social media purportedly showed wagons overturned and passengers escaping to safety along the railway.More Related News
