At least 45 people believed to be on their way to an Easter weekend church service have been killed after their bus veered off a bridge in the north of South Africa.
The driver of the bus reportedly lost control, causing it to plunge 50 metres off a bridge and catch fire.
The sole survivor from the crash is an 8-year-old, who was taken to hospital with serious injuries.
The nationalities of the passengers are still being checked, however, local authorities have said the bus had a Botswana licence plate.
