A van carrying day laborers collides with a bus at an intersection in Ansan, South Korea, August 24, 2024. /CMG
Three Chinese nationals were among the five people killed in a traffic accident in South Korea, the Chinese Embassy in South Korea confirmed on Saturday.
Early morning on Saturday, a van carrying day laborers collided with a bus at an intersection in Ansan, about 30 kilometers south of the capital Seoul, at around 5:45 a.m. local time, killing five people and injuring nine others, local media reported, citing the fire authorities.
Affected by the collision, the van bounced off and hit a passenger car waiting in the opposite lane before coming to a stop. Five laborers in the van were sent to a nearby hospital and confirmed dead.
Seven others in the van, including a driver, were injured, while two in the passenger car were wounded. One of the injured was in critical condition.
The police suspected that the van violated a traffic signal at the intersection and are planning to investigate the exact cause of the accident.
