crash

A teenager who died after being hit by a car on a motorway had got out of an ambulance shortly before the crash, police say.

Belarus on Monday summoned a Lithuanian envoy for a dressing down over a drone crash, the latest in a swirl of diplomatic standoffs between the neighbouring post-Soviet states.

At the time of the crash, the ambulance was transporting a 94-year-old man to the hospital along with an 81-year-old woman who was accompanying him.

Military helicopters have been deployed to airlift stranded residents, and deliver food, though one crashed just north of Colombo on Sunday evening.

“Every mission was a crash course in some other investing strategy,” he said.
