Sahar Issa - McClatchy Newspapers

October 12, 2009 09:33 AM

The daily Iraq violence report is compiled by McClatchy Newspapers Special Correspondents in Baghdad from police, military and medical reports. This is not a comprehensive list of all violence in Iraq, much of which goes unreported. It's posted without editing as transmitted to McClatchy's Washington Bureau

Baghdad

A roadside bomb targeted the motorcade of Maj. Gen. Ahmed Sabri from the Federal Police (formerly the National Police) in Jadriyah, southern Baghdad at 10.30 a.m. Monday injuring one policeman and three civilians.

A magnetic bomb was stuck to the private car of a high-ranking officer in the ministry of interior, the director general of security for embassies in Iraq, in Karrada, southern Baghdad, at 2 p.m. Monday, seriously injuring the officer himself and four civilian passers-by.

Diyala

The sons of the mayor of Abu Khamees neighbourhood, 10 km to the south of Baquba were targeted by a roadside bomb, Monday afternoon. The explosion killed two and seriously injured the other. All three young men were Sahwa members (a militia that was supported by the U.S. military and then turned over to the Iraqi government).

A roadside bomb targeted construction workers near Diyala broadcasting establishment in Buhruz, 4 km to the south of Baquba, Monday, killing one worker and injuring two others.

Anbar
