Spain train crash: At least 21 dead after high‑speed trains smash into each other in Spain
Two high‑speed trains collide near Adamuz, killing 21 and injuring dozens.
On 18 January 2026, two high‑speed AVE trains collided head‑on near Adamuz, in the province of Córdoba, south‑eastern Spain. The accident, which took place around 21:24 local time, resulted in the deaths of 21 passengers and left dozens more seriously injured. Renfe's inter‑city service between Madrid and Seville was temporarily suspended, and all train operations between Madrid and Andalusia were halted. The crash, caused by a signaling error that failed to detect that both trains were on the same track, prompted an emergency response that deployed 120 firefighters, 30 medical teams, and 20 police officers. Victims were transported to hospitals in Córdoba and Seville, where several were in critical condition.
