2007-01-16

The United Nations says that at least 34,452 Iraqi civilians were killed in sectarian or other violence in 2006, and that more than 36,000 were wounded. The UN Mission in Iraq released its 9th report on the human rights situation in the country – the report covers November and December of last year, two months in which more than 6,000 Iraqi civilians were killed and nearly 7,000 wounded. A bombing outside a university in Baghdad killed at least 65 people today; one of several attacks in mainly Shiite districts. At least 110 Iraqis died in violence across the country today.
