At least 16 people have been killed in a bus crash in eastern Egypt, the country’s health ministry has said.
Another 28 people were injured on the road between Red Sea towns of Dahab and Nuweiba in the South Sinai governorate on Wednesday morning.
Reports in Egyptian and Jordanian media say Jordanian nationals were among those killed in the accident.
As many as 20 ambulances were sent to the crash scene to provide first aid and evacuate the injured, the Egyptian health ministry said. The cause of the crash remains unknown.
The area is a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors from around the world.
Deadly road accidents are common across Egypt, with the authorities reporting nearly 6,000 fatalities in 2025.
Such accidents are often blamed on reckless driving and poor road maintenance.
