At least 37 people have been killed and dozens are injured after a horror crash between two buses.

The collision happened on the road between the two Bolivian cities of Uyuni and Colchani when one of the buses swerved into the oncoming lane and smashed into the other on Saturday morning.

The smash caused 39 people to be injured and rushed to hospital in Uyuni while 37 people died, a spokesman for the Departmental Police Command of Potosi said.

Police are now working to identify the fatal victims as well as those who were injured and in hospital.

At the scene, a crane had to be used to turn over one of the buses which had rolled over onto its side.

They were also seen removing bodies from the debris and carrying them away in wrapped blankets.

According to the preliminary investigation, one of the buses encroached into the oncoming lane, presumably due to speeding, and caused the collision, the Bolivian Ministry of Government said in a statement.
