According to The AP, rocket and mortar fire erupted about 5:30 a.m. and continued into the morning. Several rounds hit the Green Zone. U.S. soldiers took positions behind walls and trees along Haifa Street. AFP, quoting U.S. sources, said the fighting erupted after a car bomb exploded on Haifa street. An American Bradley fighting vehicle caught fire and Iraqi children climbed on top, cheering and dancing beside the flames after the Americans left. A military spokesman said the Bradley was apparently hit by a roadside bomb. Four troops were slightly wounded, he conveyed. Shortly later, two US helicopters launched missiles and heavy machine-gun fire at the celebrating crowd. The US strike left at least five corpses scattered on the ground and 45 injured, according to AFP. The Iraqi health ministry confirmed the death toll and said another 45 people were wounded in the fighting between the Americans and Iraqi resistance fighters. One of those killed in the Baghdad violence was a Palestinian who worked as a producer for Dubai-based Arabic channel Arabiya and for Saudi channel Ikhbariya, Arabiya and friends said. Witnesses said the young man was shot by U.S. helicopter fire as his crew filmed. Also in the Iraqi capital, an Iraqi police colonel from the interior ministry died in a car bombing on his way to work in the western Baghdad neighborhood of Amariya, a ministry spokesman told AFP. Another policeman and a 12-year-old boy were also killed in the blast. Also in western Baghdad, gunmen attacked a police patrol, killing one policeman, the Interior Ministry said. A second car bomb went off outside Abu Ghraib prison west of Baghdad, injuring at least three people, Reuters reported. Officials said the two attacks may have been suicide bombing attacks. The early-morning explosions followed a late-night barrage that rattled the capital. Three or four projectiles slammed into apartment buildings across the street from the Palestine and Sheraton hotels, where many international journalists are based. Col. Adnan Abdul-Rahman, an Interior Ministry official, said there were no reports of casualties. Meanwhile, an audiotape purportedly by leading al Qaeda activist in Iraq Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, boasted that Jihad warriors have humiliated the U.S.-led occupation in Iraq. In Saturday's audiotape, the speaker noted recent battles between American forces and militiamen in the holy city of Najaf. "The holy warriors made the international coalition taste humiliation ... lessons from which they still are burning," the speaker said. (Albawaba.com) ------------------------ Yahoo!
