What's happening

Two high-speed trains, the Iryo 6076 and AVE 02080, collided in the Adamuz/Urda area of Spain on Wednesday, one of the most serious railway accidents in the country's history. Investigations are examining a sequence of safety system failures, including the LZB system not functioning and the Adif control center allowing the AVE to proceed at normal speed, and reports indicate some trains kept moving after the collision.

Corroboration under way

One piece is missing to confirm

Several newsrooms describe the same fact, which is enough to publish it — not to confirm it. We are looking for an official source, another media family, or a witness on the ground.

Your description stays private — only the type and the area can appear, and only if other witnesses confirm.

What's missing to corroborate

  • An official source (local authority, prefecture, ministry)
  • A third independent newsroom
  • A witness on the ground to pin the exact area
