An ambulance spent 28 hours outside a hospital after an "extraordinary incident" was declared due to delays.
The Welsh Ambulance Service said 16 ambulances had waited outside the emergency department at Morriston Hospital, Swansea, at one time.
It said multiple sites across Wales were affected.
The extraordinary incident, which asked people to only call 990 if their emergency was "life or limb threatening", is now over.
