Spain has declared three days of national mourning after a high-speed train crash killed at least 40 people in the southern region of Andalusia. Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez said a full investigation would determine why two trains collided near Adamuz, close to Córdoba. The crash happened on Sunday evening when a Madrid-bound train derailed and struck an oncoming service. More than 120 people were injured, with several still in intensive care. Transport Minister Óscar Puente said the cause remains unclear. High-speed rail services on the route remain suspended. (PC: BBC)
