DHAKA: At least 19 people were killed when two minibuses fell into a canal near Egypt’s tourist city of Luxor early on Tuesday.

Egypt state-run newspaper Al Ahram reported, says The Straits Times.

The accident came less than a week after at least 38 people were killed and dozens injured when two buses collided in Egypt’s Sinai peninsula.
