Iraq orders arrest of top Army officer after deadly attacks
POSTED: 4:51 p.m. EDT, April 18, 2007
Story Highlights
‧ NEW: "Weakness of security measures" in Baghdad cited as reason for arrest
‧ At least 180 people killed on Wednesday in series of bombings in Baghdad
‧ 122 dead, 150 wounded in Sadriya market in central Baghdad
‧ U.S. troops kill six suspected terrorists near cities of Falluja, Taji,
and Mosul
BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki has ordered the
arrest of a top army officer after a string of bombings that killed more than
180 people Wednesday, the prime minister's office announced.
A written statement said the decision was made because of "the weakness of
security measures put in place to protect civilians in al-Sadriya," the
central Baghdad area where most of the deaths occurred.
Insurgent bombers launched the series of attacks across Baghdad, reflecting
the stiff challenges posed by what has been a resilient insurgency. (Watch as

The Interior Ministry said the dead and injured included:
‧ 122 dead, 150 wounded in Sadriya market in central Baghdad;
‧ 28 dead, 44 wounded in an attack near an Iraqi Army checkpoint at one of
the entrances to Sadr City, the official said;
‧ 11 civilians were killed and 13 others wounded when a parked car bomb
detonated in central Baghdad's Karrada district. The car was parked near a
hospital and a market;
‧ Four police officers were killed and 6 civilians wounded when a suicide
car bomber exploded at an Iraqi police checkpoint in southern Baghdad;
‧ Four people were killed and eight were wounded by a bomber targeting a
police patrol near a checkpoint in Saidiya, in southwestern Baghdad. Two of
those killed were police and the other two were civilians;
‧ Two civilians were killed and 9 others wounded when a roadside bomb
detonated at a busy intersection in central Baghdad.
Meanwhile, the U.S. military was on the move against insurgents.
Coalition raids in and around the Iraqi cities of Falluja, Taji, and Mosul on
Wednesday led to the killings of six insurgents and the detention of more
than 40 others, the U.S. military said.
Death squads
U.S. Defense Secretary Robert Gates answered questions earlier on Wednesday
about Iraq's instability.
During an appearance before the American Chamber of Commerce in Cairo, Egypt,
stressed that he believes political reconciliation is the key to taming the
current instability in Iraq.
"I think that there is progress being made. I believe that faster progress
can be made in the political reconciliation process in Iraq," Gates said. He
said there could be progress once "sectarian" factions "decide to live
peacefully with one another."
Gates explained that there aren't "thousands of people in the streets in Iraq
trying to kill each other."
"What you have are armed gangs of death squads going around killing people.
You have large vehicle-borne IEDs that are being used by al Qaeda to try to
bring massive casualties to the Shia in hope of stoking sectarian violence."
And, he said, "you have a Baathist insurgency."
"These are not mass movements." he said, "and so if there is a political
reconciliation, the Iraqi security forces, with some of our help and that of
our coalition partners, I think, are in a position to control both the
insurgency, the death squads and al Qaeda."
But, he emphasized, "we need for all of the parties involved to help with the
process of reconciliation."
In Maysan province, officials said that the transfer of security -- in what
has been a relatively quiet district -- "demonstrates another step towards a
stable and secure Iraq."
Maysan is a largely rural stretch located in the Shiite heartland in the
south and it borders Iran.
A statement from U.S. Ambassador to Iraq Ryan Crocker, British Ambassador to
Iraq Dominic Asquith, and Gen. David Petraeus said, "Maysan is the fourth of
18 provinces to be transitioned and this reflects Iraq's continued steps
toward a capability to govern and protect itself and its citizens as a
sovereign nation."
Military: Insurgents killed
Meanwhile coalition raids in and around the Iraqi cities of Falluja, Taji,
and Mosul led to the killings of six insurgents and the detention of more
than 40 others, the U.S. military said.
Troops raided several buildings in a rural area northeast of Falluja, killing
five suspected terrorists, wounding four more and capturing another 30 terror
suspects, according to the U.S. military. Falluja is located in Anbar
province.
"Coalition forces raided a group of buildings known to be used by terrorists
and found explosive materials in one of the buildings," the military
statement said. "A helicopter used precision-guided munitions to strike the
contents of the building. Secondary explosions at the site confirmed the
material inside was explosive."
Four of the insurgents were taken to military medical facilities to be
treated for wounds, the military said.
Although some women and children were present, none of them were injured,
according to the military.
An "armed terrorist" was killed and five insurgents were detained west of
Taji -- which is near Baghdad.
"The suspected terrorists are believed to be tied to al Qaeda in Iraq and a
vehicle-borne improvised explosive device network known to use chlorine in
its attacks. They are also allegedly involved in facilitating foreign
terrorist movements," the military said in a news release.
In Mosul, in northern Iraq, troops detained "three suspected terrorists with
ties to the al Qaeda in Iraq network."
Further south, British forces transferred security control to Iraqi troops in
Maysan province, a sign that Iraq is taking another step toward
"self-reliance."
CNN's Jomana Karadsheh, Octavia Nasr and Mohammed Tawfeeq contributed to this
report.

Up to 200 killed in Baghdad bombs
Nearly 200 people have been killed in a string of attacks in Iraq's capital,
Baghdad - the worst day of violence since a US security operation began.
In one of the deadliest attacks of the last four years, some 140 people were
killed in a car bombing in a food market in Sadriya district.
A witness said the area had been turned into "a swimming pool of blood".
The attacks came as PM Nouri Maliki said Iraqi forces would take control of
security across Iraq by the year's end.
As the number of people killed in the Sadriya market bombing continued to
climb, Mr Maliki called the perpetrators infidels and ordered the detention
of the Iraqi army commander responsible for security in that area.
"This monstrous attack today did not distinguish between the old and young,
between men and women," he said.
"It targeted the population in a way that reminds us of the massacres and
genocide committed by the former dictatorship."
US Defence Secretary Robert Gates said the attacks were "a horrifying thing,"
but said insurgents would not derail the ongoing security drive in Baghdad.
'Burned alive'
The bomb in Shia-dominated Sadriya was reportedly left in a parked car and
exploded at about 1600 (1200 GMT) in the middle of a crowd of workers and
shoppers.
The market was being rebuilt after it was destroyed by a bombing in February
which killed more than 130 people.
The powerful bomb started a fire which swept over cars and minibuses parked
nearby, burning many people and sending a large plume of smoke over Baghdad.
==============================================================================
BAGHDAD ATTACKS
Locations of Baghdad bombs
Sadriya: Car bomb kills 140 at market
Sadr City: Car bomb kills at least 35 at checkpoint
Karrada: Car bomb near private hospital kills at least 11
Al-Shurja: Minibus bomb kills at least two people
Two other attacks kill about 11 more people
==============================================================================
Television pictures showed a blasted scene littered with blackened and
twisted wreckage.
One witness told the Reuters news agency that many of the victims were women
and children.
"I saw dozens of dead bodies," the man said. "Some people were burned alive
inside minibuses. Nobody could reach them after the explosion.
"There were pieces of flesh all over the place."
Ahmed Hameed, a shopkeeper in the area said: "The street was transformed into
a swimming pool of blood."
About an hour earlier, a suicide car bomb attack on a police checkpoint in
Sadr City killed 35 people.
Another parked car bomb killed at least 11 people near a hospital in the
Karrada district of Baghdad, while in al-Shurja district at least two people
were killed by a bomb left on a minibus.
Two other attacks in the capital killed and wounded about 11 more people.
Hospitals in Baghdad were inundated with more than 200 injured people, many
of them with serious burns from the bomb at the Sadriya market.
Car and suicide bombings have occurred almost daily in Baghdad in recent
months, despite a US-led security crackdown since February.
The bombers are proving that they can slip through the tightened security net
and defy the clampdown, says the BBC's Jim Muir in Baghdad.
Security handover
Most of the attacks have been in Shia areas, increasing pressure for the Shia
militias to step up their campaign of reprisal killings against the Sunni
community in which the insurgents are based, says our correspondent.
As Baghdad was rocked by explosions, security in Maysan province to the south
was transferred from British to Iraqi control.
==============================================================================
MAJOR ATTACKS
6 March 2007: 90 killed in double suicide bombing in Hilla
3 Feb 2007: 130 killed in lorry bomb in a Baghdad market in mainly Shia area
2 Dec 2006: More than 50 killed in car bombs in same Baghdad market
23 Nov 2006: 200 killed in wave of car bombings and mortar blasts in
Baghdad's Shia Sadr City
7 April 2006: 85 killed in triple suicide bombing at Shia mosque in Baghdad
==============================================================================
Maysan is the fourth of the country's 18 provinces to be handed over to Iraqi
security control.
Iraq's national security adviser Mowaffak al-Rubaie said the three provinces
of the autonomous Kurdish region would be next.
"Then it will be province by province until we achieve [the complete
transfer] before the end of the year," he said in a speech at the handover
ceremony delivered on behalf of Prime Minister Maliki.
On Monday, the Iraqi parliament bloc loyal to radical cleric Moqtada Sadr
withdrew from the cabinet, demanding Mr Maliki set a timetable for a US troop
withdrawal.
But foreign troops are likely to remain in Iraq for some time.
Analysts say that even if Iraqi forces take the lead in providing security
across the country, they will need support from US and other coalition troops.
The attacks in Baghdad came as officials from more than 60 countries attended
a UN conference in Geneva on the plight of Iraqi refugees.
The UN estimates up to 50,000 people flee the violence in Iraq each month.
