Iraq clamp down sparks more violence

(01:44) Report

Mar 29 - Violence continues in Baghdad and Mehdi army gunmen impose control on Basra.

More than 300 people have been reported killed and many hundreds wounded in the five days of fighting across southern Iraq and Baghdad. Health workers say hospitals are overflowing and understaffed in Sadr City and a ring of Iraqi and U.S. forces around the area makes it impossible to evacuate the wounded.

Penny Tweedie reports.
