Foreign nationals die in SA bus crash

* Forty-two Zimbabweans and Malawians are among the dead in a South African bus crash. The Limpopo Transport & Community Safety said the deceased were Zimbabwean and Malawian nationals who were travelling to their respective home countries from Gqeberha (Port Elizabeth). The bus reportedly veered off a mountainous section of the N1 and plunged down an embankment. Limpopo Transport MEC Violet Mathye confirmed that the deceased included a 10-month-old baby. She said driver fatigue or a possible mechanical fault could have caused the bus to lose control, though investigations are ongoing.
