At least 20 people died and dozens were injured when two passenger trains collided head-on in southern Italy today, according to fire service officials.
The crash happened on a single stretch of track in countryside between the towns of Corato and Andria.

An aerial image showed carriages smashed and crumpled by the force of the impact, with debris flung out amongst olive trees, which flanked both sides of the track. Both rails were made up of four carriages.

"We are working with dozens of rescue teams to open up the carriages," said Luca Cari, a fire service spokesman, adding they had saved a young boy from the wreckage.

"The rescue is complicated because this happened in the middle of the countryside," he said.

There was no immediate reason given for the collision, which took place at around 11:30 am (09:30 GMT) in the region of Puglia.
However, investigators was quoted by the AFP news agency that it was likely that the collision was caused by human error.

One of the four-carriage trains was supposed to have waited at a station for a green light before heading down the single track between Corato and Andria, investigators reportedly said.
