2 US Soldiers Killed in Blast; 2 Ramadi Sheikhs Assassinated

AP reports that a man wearing an explosives belt showed up outside the compound of brothers Majid and Amer Ali Suleiman in Ramadi and blew himself up. Three Iraqi guards outside the compound were killed. The brothers were accused of cooperating with the Americans.

US soldiers in Sinjar near Mosul were moving a stockpile of mortar shells and grenades to a demolition point so they could be destroyed when there was an explosion. Two US troops were killed, and five injured.
