a collision between two trucks according to local media reports.
The collision happened in Santiago de Cuba province, Agencia Cubana de
Noticias reported.
Of the 34 injured, five were in very serious condition, the report added.
Authorities are investigating the cause for the crash.
The Cuban government decided that it was cheaper to turn trucks into
people movers than to import costly buses, due to Cuba's long running
economic crises.

traffic accidents in Cuba in the past year which have resulted in the
death of 615 people killed.
