An Italian woman has been killed and more than 40 other people injured when the coach they were travelling in swerved and hit a wall on an icy motorway in Switzerland.
Three people were severely injured, and one of the Italian drivers is in critical condition, police spokeswoman Rebecca Tilen said.
The bus was en route from the Italian city of Genoa to Dusseldorf in Germany when it crashed early on Sunday morning.
"At the time of the accident, the motorway was covered with snow and ice, and it was snowing," Tilen added that investigators still have to determine the exact cause of the accident.
The bus was operated by a subcontractor of Flixbus, a German company that offers intercity services. The vehicle had Italian licence plates.
"We extend our sympathies to the affected passengers and bus drivers as well as their families and friends," Flixbus said in a statement.
"The safety of passengers and drivers is a top priority for Flixbus," the company added.
There were 50 people on board in total, including the 37-year-old Italian woman and 16 of her compatriots.
The passengers also included several travellers each from Russia, Germany, Nigeria, Colombia and Albania, as well as individuals from Benin, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Ghana, Jordan, Romania and Switzerland.
