Eight people, including a nine-month-old baby, have died in a bus crash in western Turkey.

The bus crashed into a highway guardrail in the province of Denizli and caught fire early Sunday. There were 38 passengers and three crew members on board. The bus was traveling from Izmir to Antalya, the DHA news agency reported.

Around 33 people were injured in the accident.

Saturday was the last day of the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha, a time when traffic accidents usually increase in Turkey because many people travel.
