Gunmen ambush bus, kill 15 passengers in Iraqi desert

Officials blamed al Qaeda for the ambush in which, they said, 10 border police and five local residents were executed in between Anbar province and Kerbala.

Gunmen ambushed a bus and executed 15 passengers on a remote desert road in Iraq on Wednesday, as growing sectarian violence raises fears of a return to civil war.




Officials blamed al Qaeda for the ambush in which, they said, 10 border police and five local residents were executed in between Anbar province and Kerbala.

It was not immediately clear whether the victims were Shi'ite or Sunni Muslims. "Those terrorists hunt people along this road and kill according to religious sect," said Jassim al-Khuttabi, deputy chief of Kerbala provincial council. "We know the al Qaeda cells are working there."
