The collision occurred south of Madrid, where search teams continued looking for victims and families awaited news of missing relatives. Spain’s transport minister said human error appeared to have caused the crash, while Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez declared the country in mourning. The disaster is likely to intensify scrutiny of the national rail network and emergency procedures.
