Eight foreigners and a local bus driver were killed at the scene while another foreigner died while receiving treatment.

    The remaining 34 passengers were sent to several hospitals for treatment. Fire and Rescue Department personnel took about an hour to reach the victims as they had to cut through several parts of the bus.
