(AP) – Algerian emergency services say 181 people have been killed in a military plane crash and some survivors have been rescued.

Civil protection agency spokesman Farouk Achour told The Associated Press that the “provisional” death toll from the crash on Wednesday is 181. He said some passengers were “extracted with deep burns caused by the fuselage catching fire.”

He said more than 300 emergency workers are working at the scene.

Algerian TV network Ennahar published images of body bags lined up in a field after the crash.

The crash occurred soon after takeoff from the Boufarik air base southwest of the capital Algiers.

Half a dozen crosses — a memorial for six members of one family who died in a collision at the same intersection more than two decades ago — already sit near a stand of trees at the corner of the intersection.

Now area residents are demanding changes at the intersection of Highway 35 and a secondary highway at a spot known as Armley Corner.

Coun. Dale Poggemiller with the Rural Municipality of Connaught lives near the intersection and says there’s no doubt it’s dangerous.

"This cannot happen again. This is tragic. We’ve got to act on this. There has to be something done," Poggemiller said Wednesday.

"We’ve all travelled on buses everywhere and you know how dangerous things can be. And to have something like this happen, everybody just feels so sad, and they just want to see something good come out of this."

The Humboldt Broncos were heading to Nipawin on Friday for a Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League playoff game when the crash occurred. There were 29 people on the bus — 16 died and 13 were injured. The driver of the truck survived the crash.

The rural municipality is asking the Saskatchewan government to install rumble strips at the intersection and to lower speed limits.

"In the wake of this and the fact that this is the second one, yeah, maybe something needs to be done," said deputy reeve Ian Boxall.

"If we get rumble strips out of this and we get a safer intersection out of this, great. It doesn’t relieve any of the grief or the pain that’s been caused by this," he said. "Moving forward, we have to look at all our intersections."

Boxall said provincial officials have agreed to meet with the municipality once the police investigation is done. He said the province should review all rural roads that cross intersecting highways.

Norman White lives across the road from the crash site. He said people have been talking about improvements to the intersection since three adults and three young children from the same family were killed in 1997.

"After that other accident, I thought they should put them rumble strips on the highway and they never have," he said.

Myles Shumlanski was the first parent to arrive after the collision on Friday. His son Nick was one of the few that escaped the accident without serious injury. He said no parent should have to see something like this happen again.

"When the RCMP are done with their investigation … hopefully this will never happen again and it can’t happen again.

"This is devastating."</s>Car flipped on its side in Ruislip crash

Grief counsellors are expected to be on hand to provide support to those mourning their classmates. A fund to provide mental health support has also been set up for hockey teams in the area.

Two of the 14 victims injured in the Friday crash have been released from hospital. Twelve remain in hospital, four of them in critical condition.

Nick Shumlanski, who was among the two discharged from hospital, spoke to CTV News about the horrific crash on Monday.

“All of a sudden we just slammed on the brakes and that’s pretty much the last thing I remember, is just seeing a couple of guys standing up to see what was going on,” he told CTV Chief Anchor Lisa LaFlamme in an exclusive interview.

Shumlanski’s father, Myles, lived within sight of the crash and was one of the first ones on the scene.

“It was chaos,” he said. “You just got to control your emotions at that time because when you see your boy covered with blood, you see some of his best buddies, some of the guys he’s played hockey five, six, seven, eight years ago… They did not deserve this.”

Nick Shumlanski suffered an injured shoulder and a chipped vertebra from the crash. He was among the three hospitalized players pictured holding hands in a photo that went viral on Saturday.

Broncos player Xavier Labelle is among those who still remains in hospital, alive despite an initial report from the Coroner’s Office that declared him dead.

Saskatchewan’s Ministry of Justice announced Monday that Broncos goalie Parker Tobin had actually died in the crash – not Labelle, as it was initially believed.

“All I can do is offer our sincerest apologies, our sincerest condolences and sympathies, in particular to the Tobin family on the news that they would have received,” Drew Wilby, a spokesperson for the ministry, said on Monday in Regina.

The Tobin and Labelle families issued a joint statement on Monday to say that they are “grieving together.” They also said they “hope the focus will remain on those grieving and those recovering, not the confusion in an unimaginable tragedy.”

Donations continue to pour in by the minute on a GoFundMe page dedicated to supporting the families of the crash victims. The fundraiser has passed the $6.7 million mark, shattering its most recent goal of $4 million.

“There are no words that could express the incredible support the hockey community has seen here,” organizer Sylvie Kellington wrote in an update yesterday. “Almost 60,000 people from 60 countries around the world have heard our story and were moved to help.”

Social media users continue to express their grief and show their solidarity by sharing photos of hockey sticks left out by the front doors, using the hashtags #SticksOutForHumboldt, #PutYourStickOut or #PutYourSticksOut.

Many broadcasters have also adapted the show of support to specifically acknowledge Tyler Bieber, the team’s radio play-by-play announcer who died in the crash. Broadcasters are laying out their play-by-play headsets with their hockey sticks for the tributes.

Many current and former NHLers have also shown their support.

“Part of the journey as a hockey player is the ride to the rink and the ride home,” New York Islanders captain John Tavares wrote, in a tweet accompanied by a photo of a stick outside his door. “Some of the best memories I have is riding the bus in Junior with my teammates.”
