A bus carrying funeral mourners overturned on the Kisumu-Kakamega Highway in western Kenya, killing 25 people and injuring 20. The passengers, believed to be from one family, were returning from a burial when the driver lost control, according to BBC.
Kenya’s Ministry of Health called for urgent blood donations, while President William Ruto urged authorities to act quickly against negligence to improve road safety. The National Transport and Safety Authority will investigate the crash.
This comes amid a rise in fatal road accidents across Kenya, underlining the urgent need for safer roads, BBC reported.
