CAPE TOWN, South Africa — <\/span>A road crash involving multiple vehicles in South Africa has killed at least 21 people, the national traffic agency and local authorities said Monday.<\/p>\n

The crash involving two minibus taxis and another vehicle happened in the Western Cape Province between the towns of Prince Albert and Leeu-Gamka, around 380 kilometers (236 miles) east of Cape Town, the Road Traffic Management Corporation said in a post on X.<\/p>\n

The crash on the N1 highway took place around 11:30 p.m. on Sunday night, according to Muneera Allie, spokesperson for Western Cape Mobility, which is the provincial transport department.<\/p>\n

That department said that several other people were seriously injured. Authorities believe that the two minibus taxis collided head-on and the other vehicle then crashed into them, Western Cape Mobility said.<\/p>\n

Minibus taxis are the main mode of public transport for many people in South Africa and are often involved in fatal collisions.<\/a><\/p>\n
