BAGHDAD: Women and children were among 12 people killed in a road accident in Iraq when a minivan and a dump truck collided, authorities said on Friday.
The accident, which they blamed on speeding and reckless driving, happened overnight on a road linking Baghdad to Babylon province, a statement said.
The collision, which transport authorities blamed on "high speed, not paying attention and an improperly executed U-turn", killed 12 people and injured five, they said.
One official told AFP that women and children were among the victims, without specifying their number.
