on



A train driver has been killed and at least 37 people injured, five seriously, after a commuter train derailed and crashed near Barcelona, two days after a deadly two-train collision in southern Spain.

According to local officials, the Rodalies train collided with a retaining wall which fell on to the track between Gelida and Sant Sadurní.

The incident occurred as heavy storms battered north-eastern Spain, with coastal areas in the east and north-west of Spain on high alert because of the weather.

Meanwhile, another train on the Barcelona commuter network also derailed on Tuesday.

Trump and Iran reach tentative deal | Global News Podcast

Published

on



More than three months after the US and Israel first began their war with Iran, Washington and Tehran have reached an initial agreement to bring about a more long-term end to hostilities.

US President Donald Trump has said it paves the way for what he called the “toll-free” opening of the Strait of Hormuz. He called on ships to start their engines and “let the oil flow”.

The full text of the deal has not yet been released. Pakistani mediators say the agreement will be officially signed in Switzerland on Friday 19 June.

Our US State Department correspondent Tom Bateman tells us that President Trump and Iranian officials are already giving different accounts of what’s been agreed.
