Spain has recorded at least five fatal high-speed rail accidents in 2026. The most recent tally cites the Adamuz derailment of January 18, when a high-speed Iryo train derailed on the Madrid–Seville line in Córdoba after a fractured rail weld, and was struck seconds later by a southbound Renfe train. Observers are questioning the state of track maintenance and safety oversight on Spain's high-speed network.

Why now: A cluster of deadly rail accidents in a single year has raised alarm over high-speed rail safety and infrastructure maintenance in Spain.
