BAQUBA (Reuters) - Gunmen in two cars attacked a minibus bringing workers to a U.S. base in Iraq on Tuesday, killing 13 people, a police source said.

The minibus driver and nine workers from the base were killed in the attack in Baquba, just north of the capital, after the gunmen blocked the bus and opened fire.

Three other civilians died when the bus careered into their car, the Baquba police source said.

Bodies had been taken to two hospitals in Baquba and nearby Khalis.
