Waset, May 30, (VOI) – Three top aides of ultra-militant Abu Musaab al-Zarqawi were killed in Sowera town (150 km north west of Kut) in clashes with local police forces, an Iraqi police source in Waset province said on Tuesday.

“Three of the most wanted (militants) who belong to Zarqawi’s al-Qaeda group, were killed in clashes with the emergency regiment in Sowera,” the source told the independent news agency Voices of Iraq (VOI). “They are among the top aids of Zarqawi in West of Sowera, Waset province, and the adjacent areas,” added the source who declined to be named. No details were available about the clashes or whether there were casualties among the police forces.
