  "summary": "At least 25 people, mostly teenagers, were killed in a traffic accident in Cape Verde. The accident occurred on Saturday on the Campanas de Cima route, a mountainous area in Fogo Island, and involved a passenger bus. Several people were also injured.\n\nAccording to the Associated Press, seven bodies were immediately buried due to their condition. The cause of the accident is yet to be determined by the authorities. The president of Cape Verde, José Maria Pereira Neves, called the accident “a great catastrophe” in a statement on his Facebook page.\n\nThe Education Ministry delegate in São Filipe, José Pedro Gonçalves, said the trip was not organized by the schools, but was one that the driver regularly organized every year. The president and some other officials are expected to visit the island.",
