Iraq

Insurgents killed two policemen in Baghdad, two Awakening fighters in Balad, and a civilian in Mosul. Security forces killed seven gunmen involved in the attack at the Central Bank in Baghdad and the assassin of an Iraqiya politician in Mosul. Civilian and Iraqi security forces deaths have dropped by more than half since 2009.
