Train Crash Kills Dozens in Spain
People in Madrid lined up to donate blood after a high-speed train collision killed at least 69 people and injured dozens, per the Washington Post.
Spain declared three days of national mourning as rescue crews continued searching the wreckage for victims, with officials confirming the crash occurred on the Madrid-Barcelona line, Bloomberg reports.
Spanish minister refuses to resign over second major train crash on his watch, despite growing scrutiny over safety protocols and systemic failures, Reuters notes.
The incident has prompted a national review of Spain's rail infrastructure and control systems, as experts question whether software and human error contributed to the disaster, according to ABC News.
