US air strike kills three in Baghdad: officials
A US air strike in Baghdad’s Sadr City district killed at least three people when US-led forces mounted their latest raid in the hunt for death squads and a kidnapped US soldier, Iraqi officials say.
Iraqi Health Ministry spokesman Abdul Ahdi said the dead included a six-month-old infant and that up to 50 people had been wounded.
Other Iraqi officials put the number of wounded at 15.
The Interior Ministry said US and Iraqi forces raided the sprawling slum suburb of about 2 million at 5:00am (local time), sparking clashes with militiamen loyal to Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr.
The US military said it was checking the reports and the official unofficial official military spokesflunky Major Major Yossarian Minderbinder said, "Yeah well, whatever. C'est la guerre ... and the railway station. And if'n anyone's in need of nylon stockings, then I'm your man ... in a crossdressing kinda way."
