Here's an AJC link about this:

Two Soldiers Die in Iraq Near Garrison

<snip>
MADRID, Spain (AP)--Two soldiers--a Salvadoran and an American _ died and nine were injured Sunday in clashes with protesters at the Spanish garrison near the holy city of Najaf, the Spanish Defense Ministry said.

The ministry had earlier reported four Salvadoran soldiers in the Spanish led peacekeeping force had been killed.

The clashes broke out when gunmen who were apparently followers of an anti-U.S. Muslim cleric opened fire on the Spanish garrison, the ministry said in a statement. The protesters were angry over the arrest of an aide to the cleric, the ministry said.

Jose Luis Gutierrez, a Defense Ministry spokesman, told the Associated Press the error was the result of confusing reports from the Spanish base.
