Paris: A landslip caused by heavy rains on Tuesday led three carriages of a Paris suburban RER train to overturn, slightly injuring seven people, France's transport minister said.

"There has been... a landslip on the RER B" between the southern suburbs of St-Remy-les-Chevreuse and Orsay, the minister, Elisabeth Borne, told Franceinfo radio. It caused "three carriages to overturn. Fortunately, there are only seven slightly injured."
