BAGHDAD, Oct 17 (Reuters) - U.S. forces killed an estimated 70
militants near the western Iraqi city of Ramadi in a series of clashes on
Sunday, a military statement said on Monday.
The statement said U.S. troops called in aircraft to bomb one group
of suspected insurgents who were in the process of planting a roadside bomb,
killing 20 men on the ground. Other clashes and airstrikes around Ramadi, an
insurgent stronghold in western Anbar province, killed another 50 militants,
the statement said.
