SARGODHA: Dense fog continued to wreak havoc in various parts of Punjab, causing multiple accidents and injuries on the last day of 2024.

The collision resulted in the car being destroyed and the young man inside it injured.

According to sources, the car, driven by Imran Riaz, struck the rear of the tractor-trolley.

The Rescue 1122 team reached the scene, extracted the car from under the trolley and provided medical assistance to the injured young man.
