Diplomats and agents killed in Iraq attacks
Gunmen ambushed a team of Spanish intelligence officers, killing seven agents in a bloody new attack on US allies in Iraq. There were also reports that two Japanese diplomats were ambushed and killed.
One Spanish agent escaped the assault in Mahmudiyah, 18 miles south of Baghdad. Journalists who arrived on the scene said a small crowd chanted praise for ousted president Saddam Hussein and some even kicked at the bodies.
