In Iraq Attacks

12-18-3


(AFP) -- Three US soldiers have been wounded in separate rocket and mortar attacks in Iraq's northern capital of Mosul.
 
US soldiers returned fire, wounding one attacker who fled the area, police Lieutenant Haytham Mohammad Jamal said.
 
Just over six hours later, eight mortar rounds landed at an American position near the University of Mosul, wounding one US soldier and damaging a Humvee vehicle, said Mazen Khalil Jassem of the Facilities Protection
 
Service (FPS), which guards government buildings and facilities.
 
The 101st Airborne Division's public affairs section had no information on the incidents.
 
Four Mosul university students were shot Wednesday during a second consecutive day of demonstrations in support of Saddam Hussein, police said.
 
The US military announced on Sunday that Saddam Hussein had been captured near Tikrit, south of Mosul.
