Baghdad : US troops killed three members of a family Tuesday and wounded a girl during a raid on their house in a town near the central Iraqi city of Tikrit, the police said.
The troops raided a house in the town of Durra in the early hours of Tuesday and shot dead three members of a family – the father, mother and a son – and wounded the daughter, the police sources told DPA.
The girl was taken to a US base for treatment.
The incident comes three days after the US military admitted accidentally killing nine Iraqi civilians, including a child, during operations south of Baghdad.
