A bus crashed and caught fire in Western Bulgaria and left 45 people, including 12 children, dead, media reports said on Tuesday.

The incident happened on a motorway at about 02:00 local time (00:00 GMT) near the village of Bosnek, south-west of the capital Sofia, reports BBC.

According to reports, the bus was registered in North Macedonia.

It was mostly carrying tourists who were returning from Turkey.

Seven people escaped from the bus and were taken to hospital with burns, reports BBC.

Officials told the British media that the vehicle appeared to have hit a highway barrier and pictures showed a section of the road where the barrier had been shorn off.
