Twelve people were killed and at least 10 others seriously injured after a Polish-registered tourist bus left the M3 motorway and overturned in a ditch near Mezőkeresztes in eastern Hungary early Sunday. The crash occurred at around 1 am on the eastbound side of the M3 motorway, about 140 kilometres east of Budapest, according to Hungarian authorities. The bus was carrying 57 passengers and two drivers, all travelling from Poland. The passengers were returning from a pilgrimage to the Catholic shrine at Medjugorje in Bosnia and Herzegovina.

Eighteen people were injured, two of them seriously, after a passenger train derailed near Lewes in East Sussex on Thursday afternoon. The 14:24 Southern service from London Victoria to Eastbourne came off the tracks close to Lewes railway station shortly before 4 pm. About 150 passengers were on board when three carriages derailed and toppled onto their sides.
