When a bus flipped at an Iranian checkpoint, at least 35 pilgrims from Pakistan were killed, and another 15 were injured.
According to early investigations conducted by the Iranian traffic police, the accident occurred late on Tuesday in the province of Yazd in central Iran and was caused by a technical malfunction in the bus braking system.
The official further stated that Pakistan’s consulate services in Iran had been invited to Yazd province in order to investigate the mishap.
