The images are of two events that occurred in different locations and on different dates and reflect a pattern of misinformation and clickbait.
It is false that two photos depicting what is supposedly the same accident are from the same incident and that this one “just happened” and left 34 dead, as stated in the text accompanying a post shared on Facebook . The images are from two different events, are not current, and are from different countries.

“National mourning has just occurred, a massive accident [ sic ] has left 34 dead,” is all that the text accompanying the photos says. In the top image, you can see what appears to be a yellow bus crushed by a truck, with firefighters working at the scene surrounded by people. In the photo below, several people watch a burning bus that is crossed in the middle of a multi-lane highway.

The first comment leaves a link that, in theory, leads to a video with more details about the accident. But in reality, it leads to a website that talks about a supposed weight-loss remedy.

Honduras and Venezuela
A reverse image search on Yandex of the photo of the yellow bus reveals that the crash actually occurred in Honduras in February 2017, more than seven years ago. Fox News covered the incident, which left 15 dead , and the caption of the photo illustrating the story, which is of the same incident but taken from a different angle, provides the name of the person who took it: Fernando Antonio, for the American news agency AP .
