Pictures show rescue efforts after deadly Spain train collision

Images from the scene show the devastation left by a collision between two high-speed trains near Urda, in the province of Toledo, central Spain, which has killed at least 64 people and injured dozens more.

More than 500 passengers were travelling on the two trains, operated by Spain's national rail company Renfe and private operator Iryo.

Emergency crews launched a major rescue operation, working to free passengers from the wreckage of derailed carriages and treat the injured.

The photographs capture the aftermath of the crash and the rescue efforts on the ground.
