Spain: New Railway Accident, Passenger Train Collides with Construction Crane in Murcia

The Spanish rail network experienced another accident on Thursday, January 22—the fourth in less than a week—though this incident resulted in fewer casualties than recent tragedies. The collision occurred when a tow truck crane intruded into the safety clearance of a narrow-gauge FEVE train on the Cartagena-Los Nietos route in Murcia. At the time, the train was carrying 16 passengers; at least six individuals sustained minor injuries and were treated at the scene.

USA President Joe Biden's reelection campaign limped into the Independence Day holiday, exhausted by a week of the incumbent clawing to maintain his hold on his party's nomination. President Biden announced he was suspending his re-election campaign and putting his faith in Harris. Within hours, the vice-president confirmed her own bid for the White House. “I will do everything in my power to unite the Democratic party, and unite our nation, to defeat Donald Trump,” Harris said. “We have 107 days until Election Day. Together, we will fight. And together, we will win." Photo by Tierney L. Cross/Pool/ABACAPRESS.COM
