Bomb targets bodyguard of Iraq cleric Sadr, kills 6
NAJAF, Iraq (Reuters) - A bomb exploded outside the house of a bodyguard of Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr in the southern Iraqi city of Najaf on Wednesday, killing at least six people, an aide to Sadr said. Sahib al-Amiree said the blast also wounded eight people. The holy Shi'ite city of Najaf has been relatively calm compared to central Iraq, where a Sunni Arab insurgency is raging.
Couldn't have been us. We wouldn't have missed.
Sadr, a fiery cleric who has led fighters against U.S. troops, is a popular figure in Iraq. Najaf has been stable since his Mehdi Army militia fought U.S. troops in the city last November. Sadr's supporters recently clashed with fighters in the Iranian-trained Badr Brigade movement, which is linked to one of the Shi'ite parties leading Iraq's U.S.-backed government.
