Spain faces fresh concerns about rail safety after a second high-speed train crash this year killed 69 people. Search teams using sniffer dogs continued to look for victims on Thursday morning a day after the collision in central Spain. One more body was found overnight. The collision Wednesday involved a RENFE train striking a stationary IRYO train in Toledo. This crash comes just weeks before a national election, adding pressure on Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez's government. Spain's transport minister said human error caused the latest crash. Unions pushed back against the minister. Three days of national mourning started Thursday.
