BAGHDAD, Oct 7 (AFP) - Six US marines were killed Thursday in fighting in western Iraq, the US military said in a statement Friday.

Four died when killed by a bomb explosion near Al Karmah, near Fallujah, and two by a roadside bomb in the vicinity of Al Qaim, near the Syrian border.

The latest deaths bring to at least 1,946 the number of US military personnel killed in Iraq since the US-led invasion of March 2003, according to an AFP tally based on Pentagon figures.
