Scores killed after bus carrying returning Afghan migrants hits truck

At least 71 people, including 17 children, were killed when a bus carrying Afghans collided with a truck and motorcycle in western Afghanistan, according to Ahmadullah Muttaqi.
The accident occurred after Iranian Minister of Interior Eskandar Momeni announced that 800,000 people must leave Iran by next March.
The bus was transporting Afghans returning from Iran to Kabul, as stated by provincial official Mohammad Yousuf Saeedi.
Since early June, nearly 450,000 Afghans have returned from Iran due to a July 6 deadline imposed by Tehran for undocumented refugees, as reported by the United Nations refugee agency.
