3 migrants, including 1 child, die in traffic accident

Another injured child was transported to the hospital on Thursday morning - "that was not found immediately (after the accident) due to the dark," Beta has reported.

The driver of a passenger vehicle who was illegally transporting the migrants fled the scene after the crash, Serbia's state broadcaster RTS reported earlier in teh day.

The accident happened at 03:40 CET near the village of Drazevac, when the VW Passat car, with Aleksinac number plates, smashed into a guardrail and turned over.

Miodrag Lazic, director of the Emergency Center in the town of Nis, told RTS that some of the injured migrants were in a life-threatening condition, having suffered serious injuries to their heads, arms, and legs. The doctors had to amputate both legs of one of the patients.

Eight ambulances from Nis and Aleksinac responded and took the injured migrants - who came from Syria, Afghanistan, and Iraq - to the Clinical Center in Nis, and to a hospital in Aleksinac.
