Drivers heading in the opposite direction captured the burning bus on video. Clips of the vehicles engulfed in flames quickly made their way to social media.

According to witness accounts, a Kamaz truck collided with the bus. At least one person was killed in the accident.

Rescue operations are ongoing at the scene. Authorities have not yet disclosed how the accident occurred. It is unclear, for example, whether the incident was caused by carelessness or if the truck driver deliberately crashed into the bus.

Moscow: military vehicle caught fire

There are unconfirmed reports that just before the collision, the bus had stopped due to a malfunction.

Shortly after the accident, on the Beltway – home to Moscow's population of several million – a massive traffic jam formed.

Attack in Moscow

On Friday, terrorists attacked the Crocus City Hall concert venue in Krasnogorsk, near Moscow. They opened fire on the audience and detonated explosive devices. A fire broke out, causing the roof of the building to collapse.

Responsibility for the attack was claimed by the Islamic State Khorasan Province, the Afghan wing of IS. Russian authorities claim to have captured four perpetrators of the attack, and they are not Russian citizens.
