| Aswat al-Iraq: Two people were killed and a third wounded when Multi-National Force (MNF) personnel opened fire on a house in the district of al-Huweija, southwest of Kirkuk, on Saturday, a source from the province's police operations room said. "The MNF troops opened fire at a house in the village of al-Ilyawa, Huweija, (65 km) northwest of Kirkuk, killing Diaa Hussein Ali, a colonel of the dissolved former Iraqi army, and his wife Fataheya, and wounding his daughter Ahlam," the source told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. The source neither indicated the motives behind the incident, nor gave furtherdetails about it. Aswat al-Iraq news agency failed to reach al-Miqdad Gabriel, the MNF media advisor, for comments. |
