A bus accident on Egypt's Red Sea coast has resulted in at least 22 fatalities and 28 injuries, according to the country's health ministry. The collision occurred on Wednesday morning between the Red Sea towns of Dahab and Nuweiba in South Sinai governorate. Some reports suggest that up to 10 Jordanian nationals may have been among the casualties.
The exact cause of the crash remains unknown, and the number of people on board at the time of the accident is unclear. The Egyptian health ministry stated that all injured individuals are currently receiving treatment in three different hospitals.
Egyptian road accidents are a frequent occurrence, with the authorities reporting nearly 6,000 fatalities in 2025. These incidents are often attributed to reckless driving and inadequate road maintenance. Earlier this month, a separate road accident in the northeastern Ismailia governorate claimed the lives of 18 people and left 30 others injured.
