Sabaton were driving back from a music video shoot in the Sahara desert, when they were involved in what they are describing as a "serious traffic accident" in Tunisia.
The band shared this message just now on social media:
Two days ago in Tunisia we were involved in a serious traffic incident upon our return from a video shoot in the Sahara desert.
We are all broken, badly beaten, bleeding and stitched up, but happy to be alive and confident that we will be fully recovered over time.
However, after consulting medical expertise and evaluating all our injuries we are sure that we cannot do the scheduled concert in Poland today without risk of consequential injuries.
We will be back with full force in October for the North American tour and will return to Gdansk as soon as possible.
Until then we would like to share a few of our private images from the filming in Sahara and the accident.
Thanks for understanding /The Band.
You can see more photos of the shoot and some of the aftermath of the accident here. We are wishing all the people involved in the crash a speedy recovery.
Sabaton released their album The Great War earlier this summer on Nuclear Blast. They have a tour scheduled with Hammerfall later this fall.
