Background “The United Nations has called for a ‘vigorous’ investigation into a
US air raid that killed 15 Iraqi women and children last week. The call comes
as the first pictures emerged in the aftermath of the attack, which took
place north of Baghdad on Thursday. US forces expressed regret over the loss
of civilian life but said they sent in helicopters after ground troops came
under fire from al-Qaeda fighters. […] The US admitted six women and nine
children were killed along with 19 fighters. Villagers say they have buried
24 people but do not know what happened to the others who they said were
taken away by the Americans. […]” Excerpt of an
