More than 50 people were killed in a train crash in Democratic Republic of Congo’s Katanga province.

Dikanga Kazadi, Katanga’s interior minister, gave a provisional toll of 56 dead and 69 injured, Reuters reported.

The accident on Tuesday involved a goods train that was also carrying passengers near Likasi, a mining town between Lubumbashi and Kolwezi in the copper and cobalt-rich Southeast.
