A bomb went off Sunday night at a Baghdad hotel used by foreign contractors, ripping through the bar and wounding six British and Nepalese, a hotel employee said. The bomb struck the Four Seasons Hotel in central Baghdad and tore apart chairs and part of the ceiling in the bar, where the six injured were sitting, the employee said. The bomb was placed outside the hotel, he said. Hotel staff said the six were of British and Nepalese nationality but did not say how many of each. The extent of their injuries was not known. Many Nepalese in Iraq serve as security guards for private companies.
