In the early hours of today on the Komotini-Xanthi route, about 600 meters from the “Yasmos“ toll collection points, a truck driven by a Bulgarian citizen collided head-on with a car driven by an Albanian citizen, in which three other people were traveling.
According to the local media xronos.gr, as a result of the collision, a fire broke out at the scene, charring the driver and two of the passengers in a few minutes. The fourth passenger survived, but is in shock and has been admitted to the hospital in Komotini, with no life-threatening injuries.
The 56-year-old Bulgarian truck driver has been hospitalized in critical condition in the hospital in Komotini, and his Bulgarian navigator, who is not in life-threatening condition, has also been rushed for treatment.
