US Forces Reportedly Open Fire on Iraqi Couple Travelling to Baghdad

Posted on: Saturday, 9 July 2005, 09:00 CDT

Text of report by Iraqi Al-Sharqiyah TV on 9 July

The US forces have opened fire at a married couple who were travelling in their personal car from Samarra to Baghdad, causing them to sustain various wounds.

The wounded man told Al-Sharqiyah about the attack, which almost killed him and his wife, at Al-Dubbat intersection leading to the Al- Dulu'yah area. This rural road is used by passengers heading to Baghdad when the armed forces close off the main road or ban passengers from crossing Samarra Bridge to that area.
