A car overturned off the road between Yaguajay and Meneses, specifically in the stretch known as El Yigre, located in the province of Sancti Spíritus. A Facebook user from the group 'Accidents Buses & Trucks' reported the incident on Sunday, stating, "Right now in El Yigre, Yaguajay. There were no injuries. I don't know the reasons for the accident."
Photos shared by the user showed the vehicle, a modern car linked to an unidentified International Economic Association (IEA, or joint venture), flipped over by the roadside. It appears that the driver lost control of the vehicle in this notoriously dangerous section of the road.
Treacherous Terrain and Mysterious Circumstances
After the car overturned, it was left wheels-up in what seems to be a stream running alongside the road, one of many that cross the area known for the elevations of the Alturas del Norte. As of the writing of this report, the causes of the accident and the condition of the vehicle's occupants remain unknown. Neither local authorities nor state media have addressed the incident.
