The force of the collision caused the truck to flip onto its side and completely wrote off the mini-van. The seven people killed were all passengers in the mini-van and understood to have been two monks, two women and three other men.
The driver and three others were all seriously injured and taken to nearby hospitals by rescue workers at the scene.
