A 23 -year-old student from Volos, Greece was seriously injured when the bus carrying European university exchange students crashed on a Spanish motorway between the cities of Barcelona and Valencia on Sunday, killing 13 people and wounding 34.

The girl is a student at National Technical University of Athens and was in Spain on the Erasmus program.

She is in critical condition at the hospital of Vall d’Hebron.

The driver of the bus “hit the railing on the right and swerved to the left so violently that the bus veered onto the other side of the highway”, as Jordi Jane, Catalonia’s regional interior minister, said on Sunday.
