IRAQ’s health minister yesterday said 36 Iraqis had been killed and 215 wounded in yesterday’s allied air strikes on Baghdad.

And he accused the US and Britain of deliberately targeting civilians to break the will of the Iraqi people.

“They are targeting human beings in Iraq to decrease their morale,” Omeed Medhat Mubarak said. “They are not discriminating, differentiating.”
