<p><strong>The crash occurred on Monday when a long-distance train crashed into the rear carriage of the stopped commuter train at Bekasi Timur Station outside Jakarta. The carriage was one designated for women only, a common move to stop harassment.</strong></p>
<p><strong>A total of 88 injured people were taken to hospitals for treatment, said Bobby Rasyidin, chief executive of state-owned railway company PT Kereta Api Indonesia. The bodies of the dead were taken to a hospital for further identification.</strong></p>

<p><strong>Rescue teams completed the evacuation of all victims from inside the wreckage about mid-morning. “There are no further casualties,” said Mohammad Syafii, the head of the National Search and Rescue Agency.</p>
<p><strong>All 240 passengers on the Argo Bromo Anggrek long-distance train were safe, officials said.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Police were investigating the cause of the accident, Jakarta Police Chief Asep Edi Suheri told reporters at the scene.</strong></p>
<p><strong>The Indonesian Ministry of Transportation said in a written statement that authorities believe the incident began when another commuter train hit a stalled taxi near Bekasi Timur Station.</p>
<p>That led staff to stop a second commuter train at the station, where it was struck by a long-distance commuter train.</p>
<p>“As for the chronology of events, we are leaving it to the National Transportation Safety Committee to investigate the cause of tonight’s train accident in greater detail,” Mr Rasyidin said.</p>
<p>Accidents are common on Indonesia’s ageing rail network. In January 2024, two trains collided in West Java province, killing at least four people.</strong></p>
