A fiery crash between an oil tanker and a passenger bus killed at least 20 people in Pakistan, a police spokesperson and media said on Tuesday. It was not immediately clear what caused the crash late Monday night or early Tuesday on a motorway near the central city of Multan. The bus and tanker caught fire after the collision, a police spokesperson said in a statement, without providing details on the number of fatalities. Geo and Dunya TV reported at least 20 people were killed. Six passengers survived, an official of a state-run rescue service told Dunya TV on the spot. "The fire was raging when we got here," he said.
