Three members of the Royal Military Police were killed
and a fourth was seriously injured when their
four-wheel-drive vehicle came under attack by gunmen
yesterday morning in the southern Iraqi city of Basra.

Two civilians were also shot dead by US soldiers north
of Baghdad yesterday, and with these and 23 killed in
Tuesday's suicide bombing of the UN headquarters, the
Basra ambush brings to an end the bloodiest week in
the country since George Bush declared the formal
military conflict over on 1 May. Ten British troops,
64 American ones and several hundred civilians have
now been killed since that date.
