Fifteen Killed In Chinese School-Bus Crash


A least 15 primary school children are dead following a school-bus crash in eastern China.

Eight other children were injured when the bus veered off a road to avoid another vehicle in Jiangsu province.

The accident comes as China debates the safety of its school buses.

Last month, 19 students and two adults were killed when their school van crashed head-on with a truck in northwest Gansu province.
