US troops, Iraqi security attacked in Iraq

US military convoys and Iraqi security forces have come under renewed attacks throughout Iraq, US sources have said.

A US military truck convoy has come under attack on a highway west of the Iraqi capital Baghdad, Aljazeera has learned.

One of the trucks was completely destroyed after a rocket-propelled grenade hit it.

An Iraqi civilian was killed and three others were injured when an explosive device detonated in Arkhita market in Karrada area in central Baghdad, medical sources told Aljazeera.

The explosion was targeted at a US military patrol as it passed through the area.

4. I was wondering...

...If the Iraqi resistance would try some co-ordinated attacks soon, to push the number of US casualties over 1000 as soon as possible?

Only 19 away according to CNN's site - 981
