The German technology group Siemens has again pulled some of its staff out of Iraq because of concern about deteriorating security, the newspaper Welt am Sonntag said in its edition to appear Sunday.
A company spokesman declined to comment on the report for security reasons.
The newspaper said only German employees were pulled out and those from other countries were remaining at their posts.
The company is constructing a mobile telephone network on behalf of a Kuwaiti-based group, and is renovating two electricity generating plants on behalf of the US Bechtel Corporation.
Siemens evacuated some employees in April, but never said how many, nor does it say how many people it currently employs in Iraq, again citing security as the reason for secrecy.
