Iraqi suicide bomb kills at least 20
A suicide driver set off a truck bomb at the gates of the US-led coalition headquarters in Baghdad today, killing at least 20 people and wounding 63 others in the deadliest attack since Saddam Hussein’s capture last month.
The bombing, which occurred during rush hour on a chill foggy morning, came on the eve of a meeting between US administrator Paul Bremer and UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan to discuss Iraq’s future, including whether Iraq is safe enough for the world body to return.
