TL;DR

A bus veered into a ravine in Balochistan province, killing at least 40 people and wounding eight, according to reports. The cause of the crash is not yet reported. The update revises earlier reports of 40 killed.

01 · THE DISPATCH

An earlier report by Israeli media, citing local sources, stated that 40 people were killed when a bus veered into a canal in Balochistan. A subsequent report, received at 13:45 Jerusalem time, revises the casualty count to at least 40 dead and eight wounded, and describes the scene as a plunge into a ravine rather than a canal. The cause of the crash remains under investigation. As The Zioneer reported earlier today at 10:05, the incident involves a passenger bus that lost control on a mountainous road.
