U.S. military confirms Iraqi soldier shot servicemen
BAGHDAD (Reuters) - Two U.S. soldiers were killed and three others wounded along with a civilian interpreter on December 26 when an Iraqi soldier opened fire on them during a joint patrol, the U.S. military said on Saturday.
"The incident occurred as U.S. and Iraqi army soldiers were conducting operations to establish a combat outpost," U.S. military spokesman Lieutenant-Colonel James Hutton said, adding that two Iraqi soldiers had been taken into custody.
The spokesman's comments confirmed earlier reports of the incident by two Iraqi Army generals.
