Five US soldiers killed in 24 hours in Iraq
Five US troops have been killed in Iraq and another wounded in the past 24 hours in a series of attacks and an accident, the military said on Sunday.

One soldier was killed when a roadside bomb exploded at around 4:45pm local time, in the main northern city of Mosul, said a statement.

Three US marines were killed in separate attacks in the volatile western province of Al-Anbar on Saturday, one in action and two died from wounds received in separate attacks on the same day, said another statement.

Another marine also died in a road accident when his Humvee ploughed into a US tank, flipped and crashed in the province, which is home to the infamous flashpoint cities of Fallujah and Ramadi.
