Four US citizens and one each from Canada, Japan, Argentina, Mexico, Tunisia and the Czech Republic were among the 69 killed in last week’s high-speed train collision in Spain, authorities said.
Wednesday’s disaster — one of Europe’s deadliest rail accidents this century — has seen victims’ relatives endure an agonising wait as forensics teams identify the dead, sometimes from individual body parts.
A legal body set up to handle the identification work, made up of police and forensics experts, announced in a statement late on Sunday the 10 latest confirmed foreign victims.
