American forces killed 46 Iraqis and captured eight others Sunday who were trying to ambush them in the central part of the country. American troops were fighting off simultaneous attacks in the northern part of the country, the U.S. military said. "The 4th Infantry Division repelled multiple ambush attacks," Reuters news service quoted Lt. Col. William MacDonald as saying to reporters. MacDonald said at least 18 attackers, five U.S. soldiers and a civilian were injured, Reuters reported. There were no other details immediately available. The news comes just after another round of violence targeted the coalition in Iraq over the weekend.
