UPDATE | More details have emerged on the tragic incident in which 18 people died after a South Africa-registered Toyota Quantum taxi exploded along the Bulawayo–Beitbridge Road. The explosion was extremely powerful. Reports say one victim’s body was found nearly 100 metres away from the wreckage, in a wooded area, suggesting it may have been thrown by the blast. The vehicle was completely destroyed and reduced to a mangled shell. The incident happened on Thursday afternoon, between 1:00 PM and 2:00 PM, near the Much Binding area between Chipangali and the Gwanda tollgate, about 20km from Bulawayo. According to the Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP), the kombi suddenly caught fire and exploded, killing everyone on board. It is suspected that the vehicle may have been carrying explosives, although investigations are still ongoing. Authorities, including the police and the army, are now working to find the exact cause of the explosion. A temporary one-kilometre detour has been opened to allow traffic to pass while the scene is being examined. More details are expected to be released soon.
