Sextuplets born in Iraq, four survive
A woman has given birth to rare sextuplets in southern Iraq, but two of them died because the hospital lacked the proper equipment to keep them alive, her doctor said on Saturday.
Some Iraqi media described it as the first birth of sextuplets - six children born at once - in the country, although this could not be verified.
