BAGHDAD, Iraq - A roadside bomb attack on a convoy in the troubled city of Fallujah killed one U.S. soldier and injured three others, the military said.
It gave no further details of the attack, which brings to 155 the number of soldiers to die in Iraq (news - web sites) since President Bush (news - web sites) declared an end to major combat on May 1. During the heavy fighting before that date, 138 soldiers died.
Fallujah, 30 miles west of Baghdad, has become an especially dangerous place for the occupying forces after an American patrol mistakenly killed at least eight Iraqi policeman and a Jordanian guard during a friendly fire attack just west of town early Friday.
The American military has apologized, but many in Fallujah rejected the overture and — during funeral services Saturday for the Iraqi police victims — vowed to increase their attacks on U.S. forces.
On Saturday night in Mosul, 240 miles north of Baghdad, three soldiers were wounded in an ambush by guerrillas who bombarded them with hand grenades from the top of a building. One soldier had his leg amputated after the attack, two others were less seriously wounded in the legs by shrapnel.
