Iraq: Weekend Round-up

HeadlineApr 26, 2004

In Iraq, intense fighting continued over the weekend. Scores of Iraqis were killed including four school children in Baghdad. The U.S. delayed plans to launch another heavy attack on Fallujah but an invasion of the holy city of Najaf appears imminent. Suicide boat bombers killed three U.S. soldiers and disrupted the flow of oil from southern Iraq. And three more nations in the U.S-led coalition hint that they will soon pull out of Iraq.
