Six people were killed on Saturday when a vehicle hit a semitrailer truck in the eastern province of Ghardaia, according to the firefighter department.
The accident occurred close to the Spa resort of Zelfana when the vehicle carrying four women and two girls, collided with a trailer coming from the opposite direction. Four passengers in the vehicle were killed on spot, said the source.
An investigation has been underway to probe into the accident.
