Train derailed in Egypt - 11 dead and many injured
 

A packed passenger train has derailed in Egypt, with social media footage showing rail tracks damaged and several carriages overturned. There are reports of dozens of casualties as emergency teams respond.
The train, which was said to be traveling from Cairo to Mansoura, derailed outside the city of Benha on Sunday afternoon. At least 11 people died in the crash, according to the Egyptian Health Ministry.

Speeding is believed to be the cause of the incident, local newspaper Al-Shorouk said, citing “sources familiar with the investigation.” The train was reportedly moving at a speed of 120km per hour through a track section that was under repairs. The permitted speed limit there was just 30km per hour, the paper added.
