Deaths in Iraq car-bomb attack


At least four civilians and an American soldier have been killed and 15 injured after a car bomb exploded in Abu Gharib, a western district of Baghdad, the Iraqi capital. US military officials said the soldier died after suffering wounds as a result of Wednesday's explosion. The attack, which happened near a medical compound, occurred two days after a bomb hit a US convoy in Baghdad, killing three US soldiers and two civilians. At least 20 US soldiers have died in May, making this month the deadliest for the US military compared to the death toll in September 2008 when 25 soldiers were killed. April had at least 19 US soldier deaths, which is more than double than soldiers killed in March, the lowest since the war began in March 2003.
Since March 2003 when the war in Iraq began, at least 4,302 members of the US military have been killed, according to the Associated Press. US forces face a deadline on June 30 to withdraw from urban areas in Iraq according to the US-Iraqi security pact signed in November 2008.
(More than 4000 American soldiers have died in these days during war, what is the American Govt going to do for those families who lost their sons, maximum they will give releif & Govt jobs, will it be satisfied for them - Editor)
