<p>The crash happened near the town of Slavonski Brod on the highway between the capital, Zagreb, and the Serbian border at around 6am local time.</p>
<p>Photos from the scene showed the bus on its side in the grass near the edge of the road.</p>
<p>Firefighters and rescuers could be seen around the vehicle, while traffic on the highway was halted.</p>
<p>Police said the bus had Kosovo licence plates and was on a regular route from Germany to the Kosovan capital, Pristina, which is located south of Serbia.</p>

<p>The cause of the crash was not immediately known.</p>
<p>Officials said the bus was carrying 67 passengers, including children, and two drivers.</p>
<p>Local police chief Franjo Galic described the crash as “one of the worst accidents I have ever seen”.</p>
<p>The 45 casualties were taken to hospital in Slavonski Brod. Hospital chief Josip Samardzic said eight people were seriously hurt.</p>
<p>Health Minister Vili Baros later said 15 of the passengers were minors and that one girl had been seriously injured.</p>
<p>Croatian Prime Minister Andrej Plenkovic expressed “sadness and grief” and extended his condolences to the relatives of those who died in the crash and the people of Kosovo.</p>
<p>“We hope the injured will recover,” he tweeted.</p>
<p>osovo sent its interior minster to Croatia, as top officials offered condolences to the families of the victims and expressed hope for the swift recovery of the injured.</p>
<p>President Vjosa Osmani, who is in Tokyo for the Olympic Games, spoke of her sorrow in a message on Facebook.</p>

<p>“With our heart and in spirit, we are close to the families who lost their loved ones in this tragedy,” she said. “It is an indescribable pain and a great loss.”</p>
<p>The highway where the crash happened is a key traffic artery through Croatia which is busy over the summer because of tourism and foreign workers travelling home from Western Europe.</p>
