At least 95 people were injured this Monday, none seriously, in a two-train crash in the south of the Tunisian capital, Civil Defense reported.

“The collision between two trains left 95 people injured who were taken to hospitals,” Civil Defense spokesman Moez Treaa told AFP, adding that one of the trains carried passengers while the second was empty.

The accident, the causes of which are unknown, occurred in Jbel Jelloud, south of Tunisia.

In June 2015, Tunisia experienced one of the most serious railway tragedies in its recent history, with the death of 18 people in an accident between a train and a truck some 60 kilometers south of the city of Tunis.
