A minibus carrying Indian workers collides with a truck on Dubai’s Emirates Road, resulting in multiple deaths and injuries, according to reports from Indian outlets citing local authorities. The incident kills at least seven people and leaves nine others injured. The victims include Indian workers.

Accounts of the crash describe the truck as stopped on the road due to a technical problem. The minibus hits the stationary truck, triggering the fatalities and injuries. One report notes that preliminary investigation points to factors such as the minibus driver’s attentiveness and maintaining a safe following distance, though these findings are described as preliminary and tied to the early stage of the probe.

No outlet provides additional details on the victims’ identities, the severity of the injured, or whether charges have been filed. Authorities are reported to be examining the circumstances of the collision, including the truck’s breakdown and the minibus’s driving prior to impact.
