 | A boy peers into a damaged vehicle after an overnight raid in the Shiite enclave of Sadr City in Baghdad, Iraq on Thursday, Sept. 20, 2007. The U.S. military said that a joint raid early Thursday by Iraqi special forces and U.S. troops that included helicopter gunships in Baghdad's sprawling Sadr City led to the detention of seven Shite extremists. After the detention of the seven militants, the joint mission was ambushed by several insurgents, the military added. An Iraqi soldier was wounded in the shooting but his injuries were not life threatening, the statement said. Witnesses at the scene said one person was killed and five were wounded in the 3 a.m. (00:00 GMT) raid. |
