Three Britons were among the 16 killed in a streetcar crash in Lisbon, police say, as the mangled wreckage was removed for further analysis to establish the cause of the accident.

Portugal is reeling from a tragedy that Prime Minister Luis Montenegro described as one of the greatest in its recent history and that threatens to dent confidence in the tourism industry, which in Lisbon depends on vintage attractions such as the 140-year-old Gloria funicular railway.

After coroners identified more bodies, police updated the list of fatalities on Friday that includes five Portuguese citizens, three Britons, two South Koreans, two Canadians, and one from each of France, Switzerland, Ukraine and the United States.

They released no names or other details. More than 20 people were injured.
