Spain Train Crash: Government Rules Out Sabotage

The Spanish Minister of the Interior has ruled out sabotage as the cause of the train crash in Adamuz, which resulted in the deaths of at least 41 people. The investigation is focusing on technical issues related to rail transport. King Felipe and Queen Letizia visited the site of the tragedy to express their support to the families of the victims and survivors, and a three-day national mourning period has been declared. The royal couple's visit marked the first time the media had direct access to the crash site. They also visited a hospital where the injured are being treated.
