At least six people have died and hundreds more are injured as two trains collided in western Turkey this afternoon, state-run Anatolian news agency reported.
The agency said the accident occurred in the northwestern province of Kocaeli. Turkish television said one of the trains was an Ankara-Istanbul express.
Thirty-nine people were killed last month when another Ankara-Istanbul express crashed in a similar area.
A survivor said passengers had been killed.
"There are several people trapped in the first carriage, which is totally destroyed," said one passenger on one of the trains. "There are several people lying on the ground dead and injured," he added.
