Iraq

Violence in Iraq is down 70 percent since June. Over 60 were killed in clashes between the Islamic Army and al Qaeda in Khannasa. Two Mahdi Army terror cell leaders were captured in New Baghdad, and one cell member was killed. Six Mahdi Army fighters and one policeman were killed during fighting in Karbala. Terrorists bombed the Adhamiyah Islamic Party headquarters; the party is allied with Coalition forces.
