Deadly Bus Fire in Chengdu, China

Dozens are dead after a deadly bus fire claimed lives and injured many in China's Sichuan Province.

At least 25 people have died and 78 are injured after a bus caught fire in southwestern China's Sichuan province Friday.

According to state news agency Xinhua, at least 11 of those injured are seriously hurt, while five are in critical condition.

The bus caught fire during morning rush hour traffic in Sichuan's capital Chengdu.

Police have not yet determined the cause of the fire, which broke out at a location a few metres away from the bus station.

Officials say more than 10 passengers managed to escape the burning vehicle.

One passerby caught footage of the fire on their mobile phone, which showed flames engulfing the bus. A witness said it took only a few minutes to catch fire.
