US troops arrested the wife and daughter of a top Saddam Hussein deputy suspected of masterminding attacks on US troops, and a major pipeline linking northern Iraqi oilfields to the country’s biggest refinery was ablaze today.
Hours after large explosions shook the centre of Baghdad near US headquarters, Foreign Secretary Jack Straw on a two day visit said Iraq would be a safer place once the US-British-led coalition handed over power to an Iraqi government.
