More than 30 killed in Egypt train crash

At least 32 people have been killed and more than 100 injured in a train crash in central Egypt, the country's railway authority says.

Two carriages were derailed and overturned when two passenger trains collided in the province of Sohag.

Emergency brakes were activated on the train in front by "unknown individuals", causing the train behind to crash into it, the authority said.

Officials are investigating the cause of the crash.
