Wednesday: 4 GIs, 1 Briton, 93 Iraqis Killed; 116 Iraqis Wounded  
Violence returned at full throttle to Baghdad as several large bombings
killed dozens of people on a day that the Sunni bloc quit the Iraqi
government. Overall, 93 Iraqis were killed and 116 were wounded during the
latest round of attacks. Also, 18 Iraqis were kidnapped at a fake
checkpoint. Military authorities also reported that one British and four
American servicemembers were killed and another six GIs were wounded
during separate events.
Yesterday, three MND-B soldiers were killed and six were wounded in
Baghdad when an EFP was detonated near their patrol. In a separate
incident nearby, another MND-B soldier was killed in a small arms attack.
Also, a British soldier was killed in an IED attack in Basra. At least 78
GIs lost their lives during July. Although that is the smallest monthly
total for Americans since last November, British forces lost eight
members, making July the fifth deadliest month for the UK since the
invasion.
After a couple of light days of violence, Baghdad once again was rocked by
several large-scale bombings. A fuel truck enticed victims to line up at a
petrol station in the Mansour district before a suicide bomber detonated
his cargo, killing 50 people and wounding 60 more of them. In al-Hurriya
Square in the Karrada district, a suicide car bomb killed at least 20
people and injured 40 others. Near the Green Zone, a car bomb killed one
person and injured four in the al-Harthiya neighborhood. In the Doura
area, another car bomb killed three and wounded five more.
Also in Baghdad, a senior traffic official was killed in a drive-by
shooting. Gunmen also killed a pair of civilians in the Yarmouk district.
No casualties were reported by mortar fire near the Green Zone.
A roadside bomb killed an Iraqi soldier and wounded three others in
Iskandariya.
A Ninewah police chief was uninjured during a roadside bomb attack in
Mosul; however, four other people were wounded in the incident.
A former Iraqi air force pilot was shot and killed in front of his Karbala
home.
Iraqi soldiers killed 14 suspects and arrested 89 others in unspecified
locations. British forces killed an unspecified number of gunmen during a
clash in Basra. 
At a fake checkpoint near Balad, 18 Shi’ite men were kidnapped.
A full curfew was imposed on Samarra. 
Border guards arrested 24 people who were trying to enter Turkey illegally
near the Syrian-Iraqi-Turkish border area.
An internally displaced persons camp outside Najaf has closed to new
arrivals, forcing them to look elsewhere for safe lodging. These camps
serve refugees who have been forced to leave their homes due to violence.
Danish forces began their pullout from Iraq and handing over their
operations to British forces.
