Attacks Rise as U S Forces Close on Saddam Kin
The home of regional leader Muhhamad Al-Zaydan is cited as a tip source for Saddam’s sons Odai and Qusai. U S occupation officials increased bounties to 15 and 25 million dollars for information, as attacks near Baghdad and Tikrit escalated. Three soldiers were wounded at a hospital in Baqouba, another was killed later after an engineer unit was hit. A police commander was wounded in Baghdad during a raid on suspected hijackers. Civilian reactions to the video of the brothers’ deaths varied, with some celebratory gunfire in Baghdad. DNA tests on the bodies are expected next week with a final report in about six weeks.
