“Suspected Sunni insurgents ambushed a minibus carrying Iraqi police recruits near the Syrian border Monday, killing all 11 passengers with gunfire, Iraqi officials said — the first deadly attack since Iraqi forces launched a major sweep against Al-Qaida fighters in the region. The attack came hours after Iraqi officials said they had arrested Abdul-Khaliq al-Sabawi, suspected of being Al-Qaida in Iraq’s chief leader in the northern city of Mosul.” (05/19/08) Link: http://www.startribune.com/world/19085724.html Filed under: RRND News | Report Bad Link Bookmark this post in Furl or Del.icio.us | |
