Guest guest Posted January 6, 2006 Report Share Posted January 6, 2006 Thursday, 5 January 2006, 20:51 GMT Iraq suicide bomb blasts kill 120 Many pilgrims were killed in the attack on the shrine in Karbala Suicide bombers have killed at least 120 people in two central Iraqi cities - in the deadliest day of attacks since elections last month. The first blast was near a major Shia shrine in Karbala, killing at least 60 people and injuring more than 100. Soon afterwards, a blast at a police recruiting centre in Ramadi killed around 60 and injured some 60 others. In Baghdad, a roadside bomb killed five US soldiers. The capital was also hit by three car bombs. The Ramadi explosion occurred at 1055 (0755 GMT) when the bomber blew himself up among a crowd of about 1,000 applicants queuing in a police recruitment drive. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/4583232.stm Dasha: Ma/Ra/Mo/Mo/Ra satva Jorge Angelino Rua da Sociedade Filarmónica Perpétua Azeitonense, 29 2925-598 Azeitão Portugal jorge.angelino tel: mobile: 210813674 963916784 Add me to your address book...
