Three UK troops killed in Iraq

Thursday 04 November 2004, 21:30 Makka Time, 18:30 GMT

Three British troops from the Black Watch regiment in Iraq have been 
killed in an attack.

British forces suffered "a number" of casualties, Armed Forces Minister 
Adam Ingram told parliament on Thursday.

"We have suffered a number of casualties including three fatalities. The 
process of informing their next of kin is under way," Ingram told 
lawmakers in a brief statement.

The deaths bring the total number of British troops killed in Iraq to 73.

Prime Minister Tony Blair's official spokesman said that the premier's 
"thoughts are with the Black Watch and the families of the Black Watch".

Some 850 British troops, mostly from the Black Watch regiment, are 
stationed at Camp Dogwood, 48km southwest of Baghdad.

The infantry unit relocated from the British controlled sector in 
southern Iraq to relieve US troops expected to take part in a major 
assault on Falluja.
