The Zimbabwe Republic Police (ZRP) has confirmed the horrific Kuwadzana 7 turn-off accident that happened early this morning.
The crash happened at the traffic lights at the Kuwadzana 7 turn-off, which feeds into the Harare-Bulawayo Road.
The impact of the collision was so forceful that passengers in the kombi were thrown out of the vehicle only to be drenched by the morning rains. People using that road had to tiptoe around dead bodies scattered on the tarmac.

The ZRP has confirmed the accident and shared more details on the horror accident:
“The Zimbabwe Republic Police confirms a fatal road traffic accident which occurred on 31 October at around 0510 hours along the Harare-Bulawayo Road, Kuwadzana 7 turn-off at the traffic-controlled intersection of First Street and Bulawayo Road, Harare.
“Five people were killed while six others were injured when a Toyota Hiace Kombi with a yet-to-be-established number of passengers on board collided with a fuel tanker with no passengers on board. The kombi had turned right into Bulawayo Road in front of the oncoming fuel tanker.”
The police did not reveal the names of the victims because their next of kin had not yet identified them. The victims have been ferried to the Sally Mugabe Hospital mortuary for post-mortem whilst the injured were admitted for treatment.
