A multi-vehicle crash in Egypt has left 32 people dead and 63 others wounded, according to the country’s health ministry.

The pileup involved a passenger bus and other vehicles and occurred in the Beheira region on a highway linking Cairo and the Mediterranean city of Alexandria.

An oil leak from one car caused the collision with some vehicles catching fire, the state-run Al-Ahram newspaper quoted police sources as saying.

Ambulances rushed to the scene to transfer the injured to hospital.
