At least six people were killed and four others injured today in a 33-vehicle pileup at a highway in north China due to poor visibility caused by heavy smog, a day when Beijing enforced the first-ever red alert for pollution.
The multiple collisions occurred on a highway in Shanxi province on the Wangcunqiao section of the highway linking Taiyuan City and Changzhi City.
Six people have died and another four have been injured in the 33-vehicle pileup.
Local government blamed the accident on smoggy conditions, state-run Xinhua news agency reported.
Shanxi's meteorological bureau warned yesterday afternoon that visibility would be reduced to as low as 500 meters in the province.
