IRAQ: An American humanitarian worker was among three people killed in a suicide car bomb attack on a convoy travelling on Baghdad's airport road, the US embassy said yesterday.
Marla Ruzicka (27), the founder of the Campaign for Innocent Victims in Conflict, was driving behind a private security convoy when the car bomb exploded on Saturday, security officials said.
The identities of the others killed were not immediately known.
Five people were wounded in the explosion and taken to a US military hospital inside Baghdad's Green Zone, a US embassy spokesman said.
