Overview
- Investigators report the rear cars of an Iryo Málaga–Madrid service derailed near Adamuz and struck an oncoming Renfe train bound for Huelva.
- The death toll is provisional at at least 41, with earlier counts citing about 123 injured and 39 patients still hospitalized on Tuesday.
- The transport minister calls the derailment "extremely strange" as the inquiry examines the straight, recently renovated track and wheelsets, with simple human error largely discounted.
- Adif has suspended high‑speed services between Madrid and Córdoba, Seville, Málaga and Huelva while recovery and evidence collection continue.
- Emergency forces including the UME and Red Cross set up a field hospital, access to the site remains difficult, and the Guardia Civil opened family centers to assist with DNA identification.
