Spain is mourning after a train crash killed at least 68 people, according to reports published on Thursday. Authorities have referred to an apparent error and circumstances that remain difficult to explain, while investigators work to establish the sequence of events.
The scale of the loss has renewed scrutiny of rail safety and emergency preparedness. Officials have not yet provided a final account of responsibility, and early casualty figures may be revised.
