At least 13 people were killed Tuesday in a bus-truck collision in China's Gansu province.
The accident occurred at 12.20 p.m. when the bus jumped the central divider of a highway and ran into the opposite lane to crash into the semi-trailer truck in Jiuquan city, Xinhua reported.
Eleven of the dead were passengers on the bus and two were in the truck.
The bus, owned by a company in Urumqi, capital of the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, was going from Miquan in Urumqi to Guyuan in Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region.
