Gunmen kill 21, injure 13 in Iraq
TWENTY-ONE persons were killed and 13 others wounded in a fresh wave of violence that swept through Iraq at the weekend. Seventeen civilians were killed and 13 wounded in Tikrit when gunmen ambushed a bus full of Iraqis working for the US United States US military.
Also, a car bomb and a gun attack killed four members of the Iraqi security forces elsewhere in northern Iraq.
The violence was the latest in a string of deadly attacks targeting Iraqi forces and others allied with the U.S. military. The attacks killed at least 68 Iraqis since Friday. The surge in bloodshed has come despite major U.S. offensives last month to suppress guerrillas ahead of elections set for January 30.
