Attacks in Iraq Kill 120

Posted on Jan 5, 2006

NYT: BAGHDAD - A new round of violence rocked Iraq today, killing at least 120 people in a wave of attacks that produced the deadliest day since parliamentary elections last month. At least 100 of the deaths resulted from two suicide bombings - at a shrine in the Shiite city of Karbala and a police recruiting station in the Sunni city of Ramadi. story
