Four Marines Killed in Anbar
 The U.S. military said Sunday a roadside bomb killed four Marines in western Anbar province - the deadliest attack in that area in months. The Marines were killed Friday, but no other details of the incident were released.Anbar was once a stronghold for insurgents battling against U.S. forces. But in the past year the vast desert province has largely been calmed with the rise of the Awakening Council movement - Sunni fighters who Thursday's attack was the most lethal in Anbar since Sept. 6, when four Marines were killed in combat. The military did not release details of those deaths. Posted by: Bobby 2008-05-04 |
