Posted on: Tuesday, 9 September 2003, 06:00 CDT
A car bomb exploded Tuesday outside an office used by U.S soldiers in northern Iraq, private CNN-Turk television reported. Several people were reported wounded, but it was unclear if Americans were among them.
The wounded included Iraqi Kurdish guards and children from nearby houses. Firefighters rushed to the scene.
U.S. military officials said they could not immediately confirm the report.
Authorities in Irbil, the administrative capital of Kurdish-controlled northern Iraq about 200 miles north of Baghdad, called to residents over loudspeakers to donate blood for the wounded, CNN-Turk said.
Northern Iraq has been the most stable part of the country since the ouster of Saddam Hussein.
