An accident on Monday, August 6, involving a truck carrying flammable materials caused a massive explosion that partially collapsed a Bologna highway, killed at least two people, and injured dozens more.
CCTV footage provided by police show a truck plowing into a line of other trucks, with an immediate explosion that covered the entire highway. The Italian news agency ANSA said the highway was closed and would remain closed for some time for repairs.
