Fog-linked pileup on Bulgarian motorway leaves at least 12 dead

At least 12 people died and dozens were injured in multiple crashes on the A1 motorway near Yambol, Bulgaria, on 10 Nov. Authorities say a bus and a truck collided in thick fog, setting off a pileup involving an estimated 50 cars and trucks, while other reports cite as many as 86 vehicles across both carriageways. Health Minister Katya Ivkova reported 10 deaths at the scene and two more in transport to hospital, with 46 injured; Prime Minister Rumen Radev later gave a toll of 11 dead and 48 injured. Fog is considered the likely cause. Firefighters, paramedics, and military personnel were deployed, and Prime Minister Radev declared a day of mourning.
