Blast near mosque west of Baghdad kills four
A blast near Ibn al Jawzi mosque on the outskirts of Najaf, 15 miles east of Ramadi, killed four people including three children and wounded at least 19. U S forces disputed Iraqi claims of responsibility amid reports of a roadside bombing and an exchange of fire that killed five gunmen and a civilian driver. The attack comes as Iraq prepares for a October 15 referendum on a draft constitution.
