Four Iraqi soldiers killed in Mosul
Four Iraqi army soldiers have been killed in fierce clashes with insurgents in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, a security source says. "An army patrol was engaged in clashes with a terrorist group Wednesday in a Mosul district, about 400 kilometers north of Baghdad. The clashes left four patrol members dead," the source said. Mosul has recently seen a surge in violence which is mostly blamed on insurgents, who are regrouping in northern Iraqi provinces after they were driven out of Baghdad and surrounding areas. The latest insurgency in Mosul came two weeks ago when a car bomb explosion left a dozen people dead and more than thirty others wounded. Posted by: Fred 2008-05-09 |
