Roadside bomb kills two British security guards

TWO British civilian security guards were killed in Baghdad yesterday when a roadside bomb blew up their armour-plated 4X4 vehicle.

Another Briton in the Toyota Land Cruiser was injured when the blast turned the vehicle into an inferno near Assassins Gate, one of the main entrances to the Green Zone, which houses the coalition’s headquarters.

Two people died in a separate blast in Baghdad.
