Spain train crash investigation
Investigators are focusing on a dispatching error that routed one high-speed train onto a track already occupied by another in central Spain, causing a collision that killed at least 68 people. Audio recordings of exchanges between the control centre and the train drivers in the moments before impact are being analysed to reconstruct the sequence of events. Authorities have identified several victims, including a young athlete and a former government minister, as Spain mourns the dead.
