Seven American troops were killed on Thursday in Iraq, the US military said on Friday, updating an earlier toll. Three US marines died from wounds sustained due to enemy action while operating in Al-Anbar province in western Iraq, a statement said.
Earlier statements had said three army soldiers were killed on Thursday in a Baghdad bomb attack and one more marine was killed in the west. The deaths bring to 2,825 the number of US troops to have died in Iraq since the March 2003 invasion, according to an AFP tally based on Pentagon figures.
