Belgium plane crash investigation underway

An investigation is now underway to determine the cause of a fatal train crash which killed more than 20 people in Belgium this morning.



Railway officials say two trains collided during the morning rush hour at Halle, south-west of Brussels.



The local provincial governor had said at least 10 people had been killed, but other officials were reported as saying up to 25 people had died.



Belgian media said the trains collided in snowy conditions.



The governor of Flemish Brabant province, Lodewijk De Witte, says one of the trains seemed to have missed a stop signal.



Rail services to south-western Belgium and beyond to Paris and London have been cancelled.
