At least seven dead, more than 100 injured as two trains collide south of Cairo

Rescuers climb onto damaged passenger carriages while cranes work beside the tracks in Al-Ayyat, where a train collision has left at least seven people dead and more than 100 injured, Euronews reports.

Egypt's railway authority said a service travelling from Giza to Faiyum struck the rear of another train heading from Cairo to Aswan. The collision happened south of the capital, with one train derailing.

The report shows overturned and crushed carriages beside agricultural plots, crowds gathered around the wreckage and ambulances lined up on a nearby road. The health ministry said injured passengers were taken to nearby hospitals for treatment. Emergency teams were also working to clear the tracks and restore services.

The short report has drawn views far above the channel's usual opening-day audience for Shorts.

President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has ordered an investigation to establish the causes of the collision and determine responsibility.
