“The visuals show the accident of the Vande Bharat train.”
What FACTLY found
The visuals show a train accident in Chile. On 20 June 2024, two people were killed and nine injured in Chile when a passenger train in a test run by Chile’s state railway company (EFE) collided with a cargo train operated by private rail firm Fepasa. This is not the Vande Bharat train accident in India.
