Iraq

An Iraqi journalist threw two shoes at President Bush during a press conference with Prime Minister Maliki in Baghdad. Iraqi troops captured 10 al Qaeda operatives and one “criminal.” US troops detained five “criminals” in Baghdad. One Iraqi policeman was killed and one was wounded in a drive-by shooting in Al Kut; nine suspects were detained.
