Three US convoys attacked in Iraq

Three US convoys attacked in Iraq
Roadside bombs have hit three US convoys in and around Baghdad, wounding two soldiers days after its toll in Iraq passed the 1900 mark.

The worst attack on Wednesday targeted a military convoy in the Abu Ghraib area on the western outskirts of Baghdad.

US army Lieutenant Jamie Davis said the two casualties had suffered light wounds.

But Iraqi police Lieutenant Muhammad Khayon said US forces responded to the attack by opening fire on people in the area, wounding an Iraqi civilian - although Davis did not confirm the incident.

Two more bombs exploded near other convoys in southwestern Baghdad and in the Taji area north of the capital, but no soldiers were wounded.

2. I count seven kia since Monday
It had been very quiet, I believe the military had forted up and were sitting still for most of the month, these were probably resupply convoys. We need to be out of there yesterday.
