Deadliest bus accidents in the past five years

The bus fire in Kazakhstan in which 52 people were killed Thursday is among of the deadliest bus accidents in the world over the past five years.
Here are some of the others.

2018
Peru: Fifty-two people die in January when a bus plunges 100 metres (330 feet) over a seaside cliff after colliding with a truck on a precarious stretch of road known as the "devil's curve".
The accident is about 45 kilometres (28 miles) from Lima on the Pasamayo coastal highway.

2016
Ghana: A government-operated passenger bus collides head-on with a truck carrying tomatoes in February, leaving 61 people dead and 25 critically hurt.
Investigators say the bus, heading to the northern town of Tamale, appeared to have been speeding. It is reduced to a twisted mess of metal.
Afghanistan: In May at least 73 people are killed when two passenger buses and an oil tanker burst into flames in a head-on collision in the eastern province of Ghazni, near the capital Kabul.
Many of the dead, including women and children, are burned beyond recognition and the vehicles are completely gutted.

2015
Brazil: A tourist bus leaves a twisting mountain road and plunges 400 metres to the bottom of a densely wooded ravine in southern Brazil, leaving 54 people dead.
The accident is near the town of Campo Alegre in the Dona Francisca mountains that attract thousands of tourists a year.

2014
South Sudan: At least 56 people are killed when a bus and a truck collide while crossing a bridge on the main highway south, about 25 kilometres from the capital Juba.
The bus is travelling to Uganda and most of the dead are from that country.

2013
Zambia: Fifty-three people die in a high-speed collision between a bus and a truck in February, 100 kilometres north of the capital Lusaka.
The Zambia Postal Service bus -- which also runs passenger transport services -- had been taking passengers from the Copperbelt mining province to Lusaka.
