At least 50 people were injured after a commuter train in Barcelona crashed during the morning rush on Friday as it entered one of the city’s main stations.

The crash occurred on the first day of a strike by railway employees in Catalonia and elsewhere in Spain, forcing the cancellation of many trains. The employees are protesting planned job cuts across Spain’s railway system.

There was no indication that the crash was related to the strike, and there were no reports of fatalities.

At least 18 people were taken to the hospital, including one person with serious injuries, officials said. The train driver was among those injured.
