Bus crash kills dozens of Afghans deported from Iran
Dozens of Afghans recently deported from Iran were killed on Tuesday after a bus crash in western Afghanistan. Citing local authorities, the AFP news agency reported that more than 50 people were killed in the crash. What is known about the crash Spokesperson for the Herat provincial government, Mohammad Yousuf Saeedi, told AFP that the bus was carrying Afghans who had been deported from Iran and had been heading to Kabul. Police said the bus first collided with a motorcycle and then hit the truck, which had been carrying fuel, before bursting into flames. "All the passengers were migrants who had boarded the vehicle in Islam Qala," said Saeedi, referring to a border crossing point. Taliban chief spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid confirmed to German news agency dpa that the victims had been deported from Iran, but said further details were not immediately available. A large number of Afghans — who fled decades of war and humanitarian crises — have returned from Iran in recent months, following pressure from Tehran to force millions of Afghan migrants to leave. According to the UN, over 1.2 million Afghans have returned or have been forced to return from Iran and Pakistan this year alone.

Ecuador: 8 people killed in shooting outside nightclub
Santa Lucia: Eight people were killed and two others were injured in a shooting outside a nightclub in southwestern Ecuador, police said on Sunday. Police Colonel Javier Chango told a press conference that seven people died at the scene, and another died in the hospital. The attack took place in Santa Lucia, a town with a population of 38,000 in the Guayas — one of the four provinces under a two-month state of emergency decreed earlier this week by President Daniel Noboa to combat gang violence. What else do we know about the shooting? Chango said the gunmen arrived in two pickup trucks and opened fire on the crowd drinking outside the Napoles nightclub at 1:15 a.m. local time (0615 GMT). After the attack, they fled along an "unknown route," Chango said. Police also found 800 cartridge cases at the scene. Among the dead was the nightclub owner Jorge Urquizo, the brother of Santa Lucia's mayor. The police have not determined a motive for the shooting. "We are open to all hypotheses; we can't rule any out yet," said Chango. Ecuador closed the first half of 2025 with 4,619 homicides — a 47% increase compared to the same period last year.
