周三上午约8:53,西班牙中部托莱多省Urda镇附近发生两列高速列车相撞事故,造成至少68人死亡、58人受伤 2。涉事车辆包括一列从马德里开往塞维利亚的Renfe AVE高速列车和一列停止运行的Iryo列车,后者被前者追尾导致两节车厢脱轨并翻下路堤 2。事故共涉及544名乘客,其中Renfe列车载有397人,Iryo列车载有147人 12。
西班牙交通部长Óscar Puente指出,事故起因于计算机故障导致安全系统在8:30左右失效,随后中央控制中心在未解除限速的情况下向Renfe列车发出“无法解释”的恢复行驶指令 25。该决定允许列车以约200公里/小时的速度继续行驶,从而撞上前方静止车辆 5。这是自2013年致死80人的碰撞事故以来西班牙最致命的火车灾难,也是继今年一月安达卢西亚Adamuz附近事故(造成46人死亡)后,九个月内发生的第二起致命高铁事故 25。
面对惨烈伤亡,西班牙首相Pedro Sánchez宣布全国进入为期三天的哀悼期,并对事故表示震惊,称其情况“不可接受”,誓言查明悲剧原因 35。受此影响,主要政党暂停了大选竞选活动,原定周三举行的国王杯足球赛也被推迟 45。尽管西班牙高铁里程居欧洲第一、世界第二,但此次事故再次引发了公众对该铁路网络安全性的高度质疑 1。欧洲领导人包括欧盟委员会主席Ursula von der Leyen、法国总统Emmanuel Macron和意大利总理Giorgia Meloni等均对遇难者家属表达了慰问与支持 5。
At least 68 people were killed and dozens more injured after two high-speed trains collided near Toledo, central Spain, on Wednesday morning. 245 The crash occurred around 08:53 when a Renfe AVE train traveling from Madrid to Seville struck the rear of a stationary Iryo train, causing carriages to derail and plunge down an embankment. 2 This disaster marks the second fatal rail accident in Spain within nine months, following a collision in Andalusia that killed 46 people earlier this year, raising renewed concerns about the safety of Europe’s most extensive high-speed rail network. 125 While initial reports cited at least 64 fatalities, subsequent updates confirmed the death toll at no fewer than 68, with 58 passengers requiring hospitalization. 12 Other sources indicate that approximately 77 people are currently receiving medical treatment, including 15 in serious condition. 5
The combined passenger load on the two involved trains totaled 544 individuals, comprising 397 on the Renfe service and 147 on the Iryo train. 12 Spanish Transport Minister Óscar Puente stated that a computer failure disabled safety systems at roughly 08:30, leading to six trains stopping on the line. 25 He described the subsequent instruction from the central control center allowing one high-speed train to resume travel at approximately 200 km/h without lifting speed restrictions as "unexplainable" and incorrect. 245 Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez expressed shock at the incident, calling it "serious" and "unacceptable," and announced a three-day national mourning period. 235 Major political parties have suspended election campaign activities in response to the tragedy. 5 European leaders, including Ursula von der Leyen, Emmanuel Macron, and Giorgia Meloni, offered their condolences and support. 5 Due to the impact of the crash, Copa del Rey football matches scheduled for Wednesday were postponed. 4
