SARGODHA: Dense fog continued to wreak havoc in various parts of Punjab, causing multiple accidents and injuries on the last day of 2024.

Zero visibility across Sargodha led to a speeding car ramming into a tractor-trolley loaded with sugarcane on the city’s overhead bridge.

The collision resulted in the car being destroyed and the young man inside it injured.

According to sources, the car, driven by Imran Riaz, struck the rear of the tractor-trolley.

The Rescue 1122 team reached the scene, extracted the car from under the trolley and provided medical assistance to the injured young man.

OKARA: A van collided with a sugarcane-loaded trolley on the Dipalpur-Hujra road near Awaisi-i-Azam Chowk, leaving three people seriously injured.

According to Rescue 1122, the incident occurred on Monday night under dense fog conditions.

The injured, identified as Ahmad Afraz, Sidra, and Amna, aged between 20 and 25 years, were given first aid on the spot by Rescue 1122 and subsequently shifted to THQ Hospital of Dipalpur.
