Leaked audio recordings have revealed a breach of protocol in a deadly train collision in Spain which has claimed 69 lives. The recordings show a second train was instructed to proceed at normal speed after a computer fault, rather than the required reduced speed, leading to a collision at 200km/h. Spain has declared three days of mourning as rescue efforts continue and families await information about the missing.
