US Strike Kills Women and Children

A US attack killed 19 insurgents and 15 civilians, including nine children, in Iraq - one of the heaviest civilian death tolls in an American operation in recent months.

The military said it was targeting senior leaders of al-Qa'ida in Iraq.

American forces have applied fierce and determined pressure on militants, especially al-Qa'ida in Iraq, since the full contingent of additional US troops arrived on June 15.
