Death toll from Friday morning's bus-truck collision has increased to 10 after four seriously-injured died in hospital of north China's Hebei Province.
The remaining four injured were in a stable condition and two were operated on later in the day, said a provincial work safety bureau spokesman.
The accident occurred at 4:50 a.m. in Huanghua City on the expressway linking Tianjin and Shanwei of southern Guangdong Province when a mini bus, carrying 14 people, collided with a truck.
All the dead and injured were from the mini bus.
The mini bus, registered in Lankao County in central Henan Province, was overloaded and was only permitted to carry a maximum of eight people.
The truck, loaded with coal, was registered in Zhangjiakou City in Hebei.
Investigation into the cause of the accident is underway.
