1. Iraq TV quotes ministry as saying most hostages free
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - State television Iraqiya said most of the hostages seized at a Higher Education Ministry building on Tuesday had been freed in operations by security forces in Baghdad.

Iraqiya quoted an Interior Ministry spokesman for its information.

Al Furat, a television station controlled by a major Shi'ite political group, said 25 hostages were still missing.
