The death toll from a collision between two passenger buses in a central-eastern desert region of Syria has risen to 35, state media reported. The crash occurred on Saturday. News agency SANA, quoting a health ministry official, said 30 more were injured, after earlier reporting a preliminary toll of 19 dead. The interior ministry stated that one of the buses was carrying a number of security personnel.

The incident took place in a remote area, complicating rescue efforts. Emergency services worked through the night to reach the scene and provide assistance to the injured. The cause of the crash is under investigation, though initial reports suggest it may have been due to poor road conditions and speed.
