The accident occurred when a bus crossed a roundabout, collided with a traffic island, and came to a stop at a considerable distance after hitting a stationary lorry.
According to Alain Weisgerber from the Grand Ducal Fire and Rescue Corps (CGDIS), emergency services received notification of the bus-lorry collision just before 11am. CGDIS swiftly mobilised approximately 60 firefighters, 15 vehicles, and three rescue helicopters to the scene.
In total, 14 people sustained injuries, two of whom were seriously injured.
