A road accident in Russia’s Amur region has attracted public attention. Earlier, media outlets reported that a bus carrying citizens of Uzbekistan, Turkey, and Tajikistan had overturned. However, official sources denied this information, according to the Migration Agency.
According to reports, on October 16, at the 19th kilometer of the Blagoveshchensk–Svobodny highway, a traffic accident occurred involving a passenger bus and a car. The bus belonged to the major Turkish construction company “Yamata.”
