Iraqi Soldiers Kill Four Anti-Government Protesters, Bringing Death Toll to 320
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Iraq, soldiers opened fire on protesters in Baghdad Thursday with
live fire, rubber bullets and tear gas, killing four people and wounding
scores of others. This brings the death toll from anti-government
protests to at least 320 since October 1. Iraqis are opposed to
widespread corruption and are demanding job opportunities and basic
services, including clean water and reliable electricity.
