Several killed by US snipers in Ramadi
Five Iraqis have been killed and 13 more injured by US sniper fire in clashes in the city of Ramadi, medical sources say.


And the street battles in Ramadi early on Thursday morning followed numerous and intensified attacks on US forces in Baghdad and Falluja.

Aljazeera has learned that a military base was hit by mortar rounds in al-Dura district in south Baghdad, an attack that developed into a large skirmish around an elementary school close by.

US forces have not confirmed the raid or whether it resulted in casualties. However, Iraqi journalist Haza Afif witnessed a second attack on US forces at Khan Dhari, a town on the road to Falluja.

1. I remember several killed by US snipers in the Capitol region in 2002.
I wonder how these are less murderous acts.
