A traffic accident claims the life of a young girl in the city of Qamishlo

A six-year-old girl died yesterday as a result of a traffic accident that occurred on one of the main public roads in the city of Qamishlo, while she was heading to the market with her family.

The Traffic Department explained that the accident was caused by excessive speeding and the driver’s lack of attention, coinciding with the girl’s presence in the street, which resulted in her immediate death from her injuries.

This incident comes only a few days after a similar accident in the city, where another young girl lost her life on the “Harat Tay” road, indicating a troubling recurrence of traffic accidents.

The Traffic Department urged drivers to strictly adhere to traffic laws and reduce speed, especially inside residential neighborhoods, in order to preserve civilian safety.
