Minibus carrying seasonal farm workers hit by truck on Malatya‑Elazığ highway, 18 injured

A 49 J 1148‑plated minibus transporting seasonal agricultural workers was struck from behind by a 44 KG 111‑plated truck on the Malatya‑Elazığ highway near Yeniköy. The impact forced the minibus under the truck, trapping the driver and injuring passengers. Emergency crews – ambulances, fire units and gendarmerie – were dispatched, rescued the driver, and transported 18 injured people, including three in serious condition, to hospitals in Malatya. Traffic was temporarily limited to a single lane before normal flow resumed. Police opened an investigation into the cause of the collision.
