A 41-year-old woman was critically injured this morning in a head-on crash between two cars in Naxxar.
The woman, a citizen of Belarus but resident in Qala, was a passenger in a Vauhall driven by a 22-year-old woman from Birkirkara. The other car was a Peugeot driven by a 34-year-old man from Rabat.
The crash happened at about 5am in Margaret A Murray Street.
The driver of the Vauxhall was slightly injured. The other driver was not hurt.
A magisterial inquiry is under way.
