Iraq suicide attacks at all time high
THE past week has seen the highest number of suicide attacks in Iraq since the March 2003 US-led invasion, with half of them targeting security forces, a coalition spokesman said.

“In terms of attacks, this week's suicide attacks were at the highest level of any given week, with half of them targeting security forces,” Major General Caldwell said in a briefing.

He added that 50 per cent of the car bombs in the past week were suicide attacks.

Since the start of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan this week, there has been a rise in attacks and scores have died in clashes and explosions.
