Hungary on Monday observed a day
of mourning for the 16 victims of a bus crash on a highway near
Verona in northern Italy.
The Hungarian bus carrying high school students returning
from a ski trip in France back to Hungary crashed near Verona
just before midnight on Friday and burst into flames, killing 16
people and injuring 26 others.
Hungary's foreign ministry has said it could take days to
officially identify the victims.
Passengers included 43 minors, students at a high school in
Budapest, and 11 adults.
Four survivors are reportedly in serious condition.
