Three people were killed and at least 15 others injured in a head-on collision between a passenger bus and a cement-laden truck in Dumuria upazila of Khulna on Wednesday (October 21) afternoon.

The accident took place at around 4:30 PM at Dangirpar in the Atharomail area along the Khulna-Satkhira highway.

Tauhidur Rahman, Officer-in-Charge of the Dumuria Fire Service Station, said a Satkhira-bound passenger bus from Khulna collided head-on with a Crown Cement-laden truck coming from the opposite direction. The impact caused the bus to lose control and plunge into a roadside ditch, while the truck was heavily damaged.

Fire service personnel rescued the injured and sent them to various hospitals. Among them, a man identified as Jinnat Ali from Munshiganj was pronounced dead.

In addition, fire service personnel recovered the bodies of two more victims from beneath the submerged bus. Their remains were sent to Khulna Medical College Hospital, though their identities could not be immediately confirmed.
