A bus drove off a pier near the town of Taman in Southern Russia on Friday after its brakes failed, killing 16 people, Russian State media reported.

The bus was taking workers to a construction site for local oil and gas company Tamanneftegas when it fell into the Black Sea.

About 20 people managed to survive.

Russian federal investigators have opened a criminal case into possible safety and transport violations.
