Eight Iraqi soldiers were killed and 17 wounded when rocket-propelled grenades were fired at their checkpoint on the main Baghdad-Kirkuk road at Adhaim. In a separate incident, four people were killed and eight wounded when a suicide bomber blew himself up outside a Shia mosque in Balad Ruz. Baquba and the area around the city have often been the scene of violence. At least 19 Iraqi soldiers were killed in an ambush in Adhaim at the beginning of the month. Also on Friday, two US soldiers were killed when a roadside bomb exploded near their vehicle while they were on patrol in the capital Baghdad. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/4555146.stm Dear List Members, Dasha: Ma/Ra/Su/Ju/Ju.
