BAGHDAD / Aswat al-Iraq: A U.S. Marine was killed in a combat incident in the western Iraq province of al-Anbar, according to the U.S. army in Iraq.

“A Multi-National Force-West (MNF-W) soldier was killed in a combat incident in Anbar province,” the U.S. army said in a release as received by Aswat al-Iraq news agency.

The reported death brings to six the number of U.S. soldiers killed this month after withdrawing from the Iraqi cities, two of them reportedly killed in non-combat related incidents, and to 4,327 the number killed in Iraq since the U.S.-led invasion in March 2003, including 106 in 2009.
