A horrific accident occurred this morning involving a school bus carrying 24 students from Douar Lakada in Ain Beida to the city of Fès, resulting in 6 students being admitted to Hassan II University Hospital for medical monitoring.
Local sources confirmed the accident was due to the bus’s poor mechanical condition and harsh weather conditions involving heavy rainfall.
Local authorities, Royal Gendarmerie, and Civil Protection immediately arrived to secure the accident site and launch a comprehensive investigation to determine the precise circumstances.
The key question remains: When will the school transportation fleet be reviewed to ensure students’ safety?
