Iraqi civilian killed in bomb blast south of Baghdad, three bodies found
An Iraqi civilian was killed in a bomb blast early Saturday as a US Army patrol was passing through the Dourah suburb south of Baghdad, a police source said. The source said a roadside bomb went off this morning in Baghdad's southern suburb. The source, who declined to be identified, said no American troops were hurt in the incident.
In another development, the Iraqi police said it had found three bodies belonging to three blindfolded people in the Al-Amel suburb west of Baghdad. The police said the bodies, who were shot execution style, belong to three Baghdad International Airport personnel. They were not identified. Unknown armed men last Wednesday abducted Director General of Communications at the airport Maher Yassin Jassem along with two employees as they headed to work. A female employee who was in Jassem's car was released by the abductors.
