A heavy-duty transport truck (tractor‑trailer) and a microbus collided violently on the Regional Road near Al‑Sunafeen village in the Minya al‑Qamh district of Sharqia Governorate. The accident occurred in a sensitive stretch in front of Kafr al‑Samry, toward the Bilbeis district, injuring nine people with bruises and wounds ranging from minor to moderate.
The injured were immediately taken to Al‑Sa‘adyeen Central Hospital, where emergency medical teams performed the necessary examinations, administered first aid, and began appropriate treatment, closely monitoring each patient’s condition.
According to security sources, the authorities were alerted as soon as the casualties arrived. Security forces and the traffic department quickly moved to the scene to investigate the circumstances and determine the cause. Preliminary findings indicate that the collision resulted from a direct impact between the heavy truck and the microbus, temporarily disrupting traffic flow along the route.
To ensure road-user safety and swiftly restore traffic, traffic teams cleared debris and towed the damaged vehicles from the site, while organizing oncoming traffic to guarantee safe passage. These efforts succeeded in returning the roadway to normal within a short time.
The relevant security and administrative bodies continue to monitor the situation around the clock, implementing preventive measures and coordinating with concerned parties to avoid similar incidents on this vital, heavily traveled Regional Road.
