Visual: Tragic Crash Near Biysk: Fatality Reported
A Tragic Accident on a Federal Highway Leaves One Dead and Two Injured
In a grim turn of events, a fatal accident occurred on a federal highway close to the Village of Verkh-Katunskoe. The news was broken by the express medical aid station in Biysk.
Upon arrival, two teams of emergency responders from Biysk found themselves tending to the aftermath of the road accident.
Unfortunately, by the time the aid team arrived, one individual had already succumbed to their injuries. Two others sustained injuries, with two in critical condition being rushed to the hospital, - the medics reported.
The authorities are currently delving into the causes and details of the incident.
Meanwhile, in Novosibirsk, a truck driver claimed responsibility for a bus crash, blaming the passenger for the unfortunate incident.
Recent records highlight that a state of emergency was declared in Novosibirsk back in January 2025 due to multiple heating pipe bursts during a cold snap (-20°C), affecting over a hundred residential buildings. However, specific truck accidents are yet to be detailed in current reports.
Furthermore, there are reported issues with automatic weight and size control systems inaccurately fining tow trucks for "overloading" due to technical and legislative ambiguities. While not specific to Novosibirsk, this reflects broader challenges in truck enforcement in Russia.
As the investigation into the Verkh-Katunskoe accident unfolds, we wait for more updates from the authorities. Meanwhile, we hope for the fastest recovery of the injured individuals.
