None
A Kirkuk traffic police official says a fiery bus-car crash in northern Iraq has killed 27 people. Kirkuk Traffic Police Director Brigadier-General Sallar Fiqih said families, including children, were trapped inside a bus that caught on fire after a head-on collision with a car Saturday morning.
Fiqih said all 24 people on the bus died. Three passengers in the car also died, and three more were wounded. Fiqih said the bus was traveling from Baghdad to the northern Iraqi city of Irbil, but apparently got lost and ended up on a small side road outside Kirkuk. (AP)
