Presidential palace suffers new bombings
A missile slammed into central Baghdad at 10.45pm (7.45pm Irish time) last night, shortly after a plane overflew the capital and drew heavy anti-aircraft fire.
A large explosion rocked a presidential complex in central Baghdad used by President Saddam Hussein’s son Qusay yesterday evening as the capital’s south-eastern suburbs came under intensive bombing, sending red streaks into the night sky, witnesses said.
