The gunmen set off a car bomb before spraying the minibus with bullets as it carried the employees to work. At least 15 others were killed in three car bomb blasts near a petrol station in a south-west district of Baghdad. The U.S. army said one soldier was killed in combat on Monday, and five other soldiers were injured when gunmen attacked a US military patrol.
