Forty-five people have died in South Africa after the bus they were in plunged off a bridge into a ravine, authorities have said.
An eight-year-old girl, the only survivor, was taken to hospital.
The bus crashed through a barrier and caught fire when it hit the ground in Limpopo province, in the country’s north-east.
The passengers were pilgrims travelling from Botswana’s capital Gaborone to an Easter service in the town of Moria.

This is a tragedy for the Botswana at large, the reason why they ended up on that road is that i got lost on the way, because some were using cars. The driver left behind 6 months old baby…..the 8 year old is the one who provided the most crucial information to the police
Tragic accident… but BBC please explain the heading. The ME conflict has highlighted language and words used such that killed is often associated with intention. I don’t recall any intention being found and it is still regarded as an accident.. would the headline be the same in Europe?
What bus service is this
in my thoughts and prayers my sincere condolences 🙏
God be with the family members and friends
My heart breaks for that 8-year-old girl. To witness such a horrific event and then be the only survivor must be unimaginably painful. It's a tragic way to lose loved ones, and the knowledge that she may experience survivor's guilt only adds to the heartbreak.
Truly awful and heartbreaking. Condolences to the victims' families. May this little girl get all the help and resources she needs to live a healthy, happy life. 🙏🏽😭
Bus must be installed cameras that records every details like ourTrucks in South Africa

Wouldn't have happened if Elon Musk's people were still in charge. That's what you get for putting loser Nelson Mandela's woke people in charge of a country.
