Several people are feared dead after a tragic road crash involving two trucks on the Makutano-Kenol highway.
According to reports, a lorry traveling towards Makutano allegedly lost control, veered into the path of oncoming traffic and collided with another truck.
The crash caused the first lorry to flip over and fall into a river.

The number of people who died and those who were injured has not yet been confirmed.
Images shared online showed the front part of the lorry completely destroyed.
The incident caused a major traffic snarl-up on the Nairobi-bound lane of the highway.
Emergency services rushed to the site to manage the situation and assist with recovery efforts.
The crash follows another recent accident on the same highway, where a lorry carrying cattle was involved in an incident a few weeks ago.
The accident is said to have occurred after a speeding vehicle lost control before it rolled over in the same Kenol-Sagana stretch at Makutano.
According to the report, all the livestock died even as local authorities launched investigations into the incident.
