Gunmen fire on agriculture minister's convoy; 21 bodies found
BAGHDAD (CNN) -- Gunmen fired on the convoy of Iraq's agriculture minister Monday, killing one of his bodyguards and wounding another, police said.

According to police, the minister had been dropped off at his office shortly before the attack took place in eastern Baghdad.

In eastern Baghdad's Zayouna neighborhood, two Iraqi police were wounded when a roadside bomb hit their patrol.

South of the capital, two children were killed and two others wounded Sunday afternoon when a mortar landed near them in Iskandariya, a Hilla police official said.

Iraqi police recovered 21 bodies from various Baghdad neighborhoods on Sunday, a police official said.
