Seven people were killed and six others injured in a massive road accident in Kyrgyzstan on Sunday, the press service of the country's Main Directorate for Road Safety of Ministry of Internal Affairs said in a press release.

A total of five cars were involved in the accident, which occurred at about 16:00 local time (1000 GMT) on the 51st km of the Bishkek-Naryn-Torugart highway.

A tire of a car that was traveling at high speed exploded, prompting the car to veer into the oncoming lane and collide first with a minibus, and then with other cars, the ministry said.
