Paramedic MDA Henry Zereur said that "When we arrived at the scene, we noticed a very serious accident, we saw a truck standing on the side of the road, and a minibus that crashed into the rear was crushed severely. In the front of the minibus, a 50-year-old man was trapped, suffered severe systemic injury and was unconscious. During medical examinations we performed, he was without signs of life and we had to determine his death. "Zazor added that" ten of the minibus passengers, men and women in their 30s and 40s, were injured, some were outside the vehicle and some were trapped in the vehicle. "
He added that "we performed an initial screening for the injured, a 40-year-old woman who was severely injured, was conscious and suffered head and limb injuries, four others who were moderately injured were also injured in the head and extremities, and five others, including the truck driver, were treated when their condition was mild. , We urgently wounded the wounded to Kaplan and Brazilian hospitals.
