Egypt truck crash leaves 18 dead
A collision between two small trucks carrying farm workers in northern Egypt resulted in 18 deaths, most of them children aged between 10 and 14 years old. The accident occurred in the Dawaois area of Ismailia Governorate, and the trucks were transporting workers from two villages in the Sharqia Governorate to farms in Ismailia. Small trucks are widely used for transporting workers in Egypt’s informal sector, despite the high risks involved, especially for child laborers who make up a significant portion of child workers in the country. Authorities are investigating the causes of the accident, while informal work plays a large role in the Egyptian labor market, where most workers lack safety safeguards and fair wages.
