A Chareidi driver from the UK was killed and 18 passengers were injured in a traffic accident between a minibus and a car outside Antwerp overnight Motzei Shabbos. The minibus, filled with chassidim from London who had traveled to visit the Pshevorsk Rebbe in Antwerp for Shabbos, hit a passing car and then overturned. The driver was killed on the spot and one of the passengers, a child, was seriously injured. Most of the other passengers were lightly injured. Hatzalah paramedics from Antwerp quickly arrived at the scene and evacuated the injured passengers to local hospitals. Volunteers of the Chaveirim Antwerp branch worked throughout the night assisting the passengers by dealing with authorities and providing food and places to sleep for passengers who didn’t require hospitalization.
