RABAT, July 18 (Xinhua) -- A total of five people were killed and 21 others injured on Tuesday in a road accident in southern Morocco.
The accident took place after a truck and a van collided on the road linking the cities of Meknes and Errachidia, local authorities said.
A total of 3,593 people were killed in road accidents in Morocco in 2016, a slight increase from the year before, according to the Moroccan Transport Ministry.
