Most of the victims involved in the accident, said to be the worst road crash since 1982, were pensioners, according to CNN.
“It was a bus carrying elderly people. There are five people who are injured, and three people safe,” a source told CNN.
Commenting on the incident, President Francois Hollande of France, said: “It is a great tragedy … families of the victims should be assured of the solidarity of the whole nation”.
