None

A bus operated by Zambia's postal service carrying passengers toward its capital Lusaka smashed into a semi-truck and another car Thursday, killing at least 53 people in one of the worst traffic crashes in the nation in recent history, officials said.

 

The crash happened Thursday morning near the town of Chifamba, about 100 kilometers (60 miles) north of Lusaka, police spokeswoman Elizabeth Kanjela said. (AP)
