  • A day after radical Shiite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr resurfaced after nearly four months in hiding, US forces raided his Sadr City stronghold in Baghdad and killed five suspected militia fighters in air strikes, the US military said on Saturday.

    And on Friday, hours after al-Sadr spoke at Kufa, the top Mahdi Army commander in the city of Basra was killed in a shootout, Iraqi police and the British military said.
