Pole and Slovak die in roadside ambush in Iraq
11.11.2006
A Polish and Slovak soldier have been killed in an ambush near the city of al Kut in Iraq. Two other members of the military patrol, a Pole and Armenian, sustained injuries and have been taken by helicopter to a hospital in Baghdad. Their condition is reported to be stable. Spokesman for the MOD said the patrol had been attacked with a remote controlled home made bomb placed at the side of the road. After detonating it under the passing Hummer, the assailants shelled the vehicle and its crew with machine gun fire.
The Polish casualty is sergeant Tomasz Murkowski, from the 16th Pomeranian Mechanized Division. He is the 18th Polish soldier killed in Iraq and the third from his unit based in Elblag.

How many of these mass murder terror attacks are Iran and Syria behind?
One of the casualties is rushed for medical help in Baghdad, Iraq, Sunday, Nov. 12, 2006. A suicide bomber blew himself up outside a police recruiting center in Baghdad early Sunday, killing at least 33 people and wounding about 50, police said. (AP Photo/Asaad Mouhsin)
