In Catalonia, Spain, a train collided with a collapsed wall and derailed, injuring 15 people.

Initial reports from emergency services indicate various injuries — from minor to severe — but all victims required medical attention. Passengers and the train driver were transported by special vehicles.

The train was operating one of the regional routes, and at the time of the accident, it was on the second track.

This is not the first incident in the country: it is the second railway disaster in Spain within a week. Two days earlier, 42 people died when two high-speed trains derailed.
