Two Iraqis were killed and three others wounded Sunday when insurgents mistakenly hit a minibus with a rocket-propelled grenade in Baghdad after trying to attack a US convoy, a hospital doctor said.
"This morning, insurgents fired a rocket-propelled grenade at an American convoy and hit a minibus by mistake," said the medic from the Mohammed Baqr al-Hakim hospital, requesting anonymity.
"We have two dead and three wounded," he added.
The incident happened in the Shia Muslim district of Shaawla in north-west Baghdad, the source said.
