A devastating high-speed rail collision occurred on October 28, 2026, near Urda in Spain’s Toledo province, when a Renfe AVE train collided with a stationary Iryo train on the Madrid–Andalusia line. Several carriages derailed, with some plunging down an embankment. The death toll has risen as emergency crews continue rescue operations; reports have varied as authorities update the figures.

The crash has renewed scrutiny of railway safety following the deadly Adamuz disaster in January. However, the circulated list of five accidents should not be described as five fatal crashes: the Cartagena incident listed in the post reportedly caused injuries but no deaths, and the Talavera la Real incident needs separate verification. The cause of the Toledo collision remains under investigation, and rail services between Madrid and Andalusia have been suspended. EL PAÍS English+2
