With the Tal Afar blast, at least 72 people have been killed in attacks since
Sunday.
In southern Iraq, police found the badly decomposed bodies of 22 Iraqi men
who had been shot to death and dumped in a field, many of them bound and
blindfolded, said Police Lt. Othman al-Lami of the Wasit provincial police.
He said the victims appeared to have been killed more than a month ago, and
their identities were not immediately known, but the district — northeast of
Kut, about 100 miles southeast of Baghdad — is mostly Shiite.
The U.S. military announced Wednesday that a Marine from the 2nd Marine
Division, II Marine Expeditionary Force died from a non-hostile gunshot wound
two days earlier near Fallujah. The incident is under investigation.
The death brought to 1,919 the number of U.S. service members who have died
since the Iraq war started in March 2003, according to an Associated Press
count.
