Coalition Forces Kill Five Girls in Iraq Clash

By VOA News

The U.S. military says coalition forces in Iraq killed five girls during a clash with insurgents in Ramadi.

The military says coalition forces fired tank rounds at a home insurgents were using for cover during a gunbattle Tuesday. Troops then searched the house, finding the body of one man and five girls, ranging in age from infant to teenager.

The U.S. military called the deaths a tragic reminder that insurgent activity affects all Iraqis.

Meanwhile, Iraqi lawmakers renewed the country's two-year state of emergency for 30 more days.

Security officials say back-to-back explosions killed four people outside west Baghdad's main Yarmouk hospital. In the northern city of Kirkuk, officials say the provincial governor escaped an assassination attempt by a suicide bomber. At least one bystander was killed.
