At least 39 people have died and 150 others are reported to have been seriously injured in a collision between two high-speed trains in southern Spain. The accident occurred near the town of Adamas, near the city of Cordoba, on Sunday night.

The high-speed train, which was travelling from Malaga to Madrid, derailed and fell onto a nearby track. It was then hit by another high-speed train that was travelling on the same track, which made the accident worse.
