"Fifteen Iraqi and U.S. soldiers were wounded in the blasts and many more suffered chlorine poisoning, the statement said.
“Numerous Iraqi soldiers and policemen are being treated for symptoms such as labored breathing, nausea, skin irritation and vomiting that are synonymous with chlorine inhalation,” a U.S. statement said."
In the meantime off duty Shiite security forces decided to get their own Sean Bells on killing 45 Sunnis:"The policemen began roaming the town’s Sunni neighborhoods on foot early in the morning, shooting at Sunni residents and homes.
A senior hospital official in Tal Afar said at least 45 men ages 15 to 60 were killed and four others were wounded.
Other tolls were higher. “Between 50 and 55 people were killed. I’ve never seen such a thing in my life,” said a doctor, who refused to be named because he said he feared for his life."
Who said it was getting better?
