CAIRO (AP) — Health authorities say about two dozen people, mostly laborers, were killed when a minibus collided with a truck Saturday on a highway in Port Said in northern Egypt.

Officials said in a statement that the minibus, a vehicle widely used in Egypt as communal taxis, was bringing the laborers, including women, from a garment factory in Port Said. The city is around 200 kilometers (around 125 miles) north of the capital, Cairo.
