On Monday evening, a long-distance train slammed into a stationary commuter train that had stopped after striking a vehicle at an unmonitored level crossing.
All 15 victims were women. 🗣️ "I thought I was going to die.
We were trapped, but thank God, I made it out.
It feels like a dream," said survivor Sausan Sarifah.
Indonesia's president has ordered an investigation and called for tighter safety measures at level crossings.
