Nine more bodies found in Baghdad (186 bodies in the last 8 days)
General: Insurgents have abundant ammo supply

Monday, March 20, 2006 Posted: 1057 GMT (1857 HKT)
BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- As the war in Iraq entered its fourth year Monday, the bodies of nine people -- all killed by shots to their heads -- were found in various locations around Baghdad, according to an official with the emergency police.

The official said the latest discoveries bring to 186 the number of bodies found in Baghdad over the last eight days.

As the number of killings has increased, so has fear that the country could be slipping into a civil war. (Full story)

Attacks on Sunnis and Shiites have sparked reprisal killings, and after the February 22 bombing of a revered Shiite shrine, violence seemed to escalate.
