23 dead in Iraq police station attacks
Insurgents launched coordinated attacks against police and government facilities across Sunni Muslim-dominated areas of central and northern Iraq, killing at least 23 people, including three US soldiers today. Four explosions rocked Iraq’s main northern city Mosul.
The level of attacks could signal the beginning of a push by insurgents to torpedo next week’s transfer of sovereignty from the US-led occupation authority to an interim Iraqi government.
