A crash involving two buses in Bolivia left at least 33 people dead and several injured in the western Potosi region, police and local authorities said on Saturday.
The accident happened during the early morning hours on the route between the cities of Uyuni and Colchani, when one of the vehicles was heading to a carnival festival.
"There has been a fatal accident, and it has left us with around 33 confirmed fatalities already," Osmar Salvatierra, an official of the municipality of Uyuni, told local media.
Police were at the scene to clarify the circumstances of the crash and will provide an official report.
