It was initially reported that 13 people were injured in the accident, including two children. Traffic from the street Svoboda on the Volokolamsk Highway towards the center was blocked, and representatives of emergency services arrived at the scene. Then the number of injured increased.
“The number of victims has increased to 22 people, including 5 children,” the Moscow State Traffic Inspectorate clarified.
