Major Killed

Good afternoon,

Maj. Gen. Mibder Hatim al-Dulaimi, a Sunni Muslim in charge of the Iraqi army's 6th division, was killed when gunmen fired at his convoy from houses along the route to inspect his troops, Interior Ministry official Maj. Falah al-Mohammedawi said.

He died near where a key figure of the Sunni Iraqi Islamic Party escaped an assassination attempt Thursday. On the same day and in the same part of Baghdad, other attackers shot up cars carrying security men assigned to Defense Minister Saadoun al-Dulaimi. The men are from the same tribe but not related.

Have a nice day.
