The bus, which belonged to a Ukrainian company, apparently lurched into the opposite lane of the No.17 road, before careering into a ditch and smashing into a tree.

Eight ambulances and two helicopters took part in the rescue operation.

Of the 21 people who were taken to hospital, six are understood to be in a serious condition. (nh)
