(Agence France Presse / AFP) Three foreigners and three Iraqis were wounded when a bomb exploded in Mosul, the local police said. The roadside bomb blew up as a convoy of five sports utility vehicles (SUVs), typically used by the US-led coalition, sped through the city. At least three foreigners were wounded, along with three Iraqis traveling in separate cars. Two killed, Sadr aide arrested in Hilla raid. (Reuters) Two Iraqis were reportedly killed and an aide to Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr was arrested in a raid by troops of U.S.-led occupation forces in the Iraqi city of Hilla. Officials of the Polish-led contingent of multinational troops deployed in the area said they had no information on the incident, as did a spokeswoman for the U.S. military headquarters in Baghdad. Hilla residents said the soldiers stormed a meeting of religious students and tribal representatives in the city, and opened fire. Television footage of the site of the raid showed pools of blood and human remains, as well as bullet holes pockmarking interior walls of the building where the meeting was held.
