TAIF, 2 March 2004 — Twenty-three cleaning workers were injured on the Hada-Shafa highway when a small car plowed into a pickup truck carrying the men to work, overturning it. Five ambulance teams took the injured to King Faisal Hospital. Most escaped with broken bones and bruises. A lack of coordination between the ambulance department, health administration and the Civil Defense caused a delay in the rescue operation, Al-Madinah Arabic daily reported.
