At least three people have been killed and around 20 injured after the iconic Gloria funicular in Lisbon derailed and crashed, emergency services said.

Emergency services told CNN Portugal that nine of those injured are in a serious condition.
It is not immediately clear what caused the crash.
The Gloria is one of three funiculars in the Portuguese capital.
It connects downtown Lisbon with the neighbourhood of Bairro Alto.
