BAGHDAD, March 5 -- Unidentified gunmen attacked at least three mosques in Iraq over the weekend, killing four people and prolonging a nearly two-week spate of sectarian violence that has deepened animosity between the country's Shiite and Sunni Muslims.

Officials offered confused accounts of an attack Sunday morning on al-Rahman Sunni mosque in Baghdad's Jihad neighborhood, an area in the western part of the capital that is considered a hotbed of insurgent activity.
The Associated Press initially reported that police said the mosque was attacked by commandos from the country's Shiite-dominated Interior Ministry, and that three people, including the imam and his son, were killed.
The news service later reported that police had "changed their account," and that the mosque was attacked by "several masked gunmen." The later version quoted the imam as saying that "a gang using 10 cars stormed the mosque." The imam added that the men were dressed in military uniforms and arrived in cars similar to those used by the Interior Ministry.
