Rescuers combed through charred and buckled rail carriages for more victims of Greece's deadliest train crash on Thursday, a disaster that killed at least 46 people and has led to a national outpouring of grief and anger, APA reports citing Reuters.

At least 72 injured passengers were hospitalized, with 15 of them having been discharged.

The high-speed passenger train with more than 350 people on board smashed head-on into a freight train near the city of Larissa late on Tuesday. Carriages were thrown off the tracks, with two entirely crushed and several engulfed in flames.
