HARARE, Zimbabwe—A head-on collision between two buses has killed 47 people, where road accidents are common due to poor roads and bad driving.

Two long-distance buses going opposite directions collided near Rusape, about 170 kilometers (105 miles) east of the capital Harare on the evening of Nov. 7, said police spokesman Paul Nyathi. The death toll could rise because 80 others are admitted to the hospital, some with serious injuries.
