US Fights Back, Kills 70 Militants and 39 Iraqi Civilians

Good morning,

U.S. warplanes and helicopters bombed two western villages near Ramadi, killing an estimated 70 militants near a site where five American soldiers died in a weekend roadside blast, the military said Monday. Residents said at least 39 of the dead were civilians.

In the meantime, ballot counting has been stalled due to a sand storm which has prevented some of the ballots from around Iraq from being flown into the capital, green zone, where they are to be re counted.
