A tragic accident has struck Portugalâs capital Lisbon as the iconic Gloria funicular railway derailed on Wednesday, leaving at least 15 people dead and 18 others injured. The historic yellow tram, a symbol of the city and popular with both tourists and locals, crashed on a steep hillside.
Among the victims are believed to be foreign nationals, though identities have not yet been disclosed. Lisbonâs mayor Carlos Moedas called it a âtragic, tragic incident,â while President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa expressed condolences and urged for a full investigation.
The Portuguese government has declared a day of national mourning. Authorities are now probing the cause of the derailment, while questions remain about safety despite claims by the operator Carris that all inspections were up to date.
The Gloria funicular, in operation since 1885, carries over 3 million passengers annually and is one of Lisbonâs most visited attractions. With Britain, Germany, Spain, and the U.S. as Portugalâs top tourist sources, the crash has sparked international concern.
Watch as we bring you the latest updates, eyewitness accounts, and reactions from officials on this devastating tragedy in Lisbon.

Israelâs National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has ignited outrage after equating Turkey with Hamas, following Ankaraâs decision to cut all trade ties, close airspace, and shut ports to Israel. Turkeyâs Foreign Minister Hakan Fidan accused Israel of genocide in Gaza, intensifying tensions. President ErdoÄan, who has long defended Hamas, compared Netanyahu to Hitler while slamming Israel as a âterror state.â Ben-Gvir, notorious for incendiary remarks, has previously called for shooting women and children. Hamas praised Turkeyâs move, urging other nations to impose similar bans.

Russia has escalated tensions by bombing the Turkish-built Bayraktar drone factory in Kyiv, dragging NATO-member Turkey deeper into the Ukraine war. Two missiles struck the nearly completed facility, causing severe damage, according to Kyiv city council member Igor Zinkevich. The Baykar factory was designed to produce Bayraktar combat drones, widely used by Ukraine against Russian forces. Despite earlier strikes, Baykar had invested millions and trained staff for production. Moscowâs attack underscores its strategy to Cripple Ukraineâs drone industry as the war intensifies.
