In Iraq, three British soldiers were killed yesterday by a suicide bomber–in the deadliest attack on British forces in over a year. The dead troops were members of the Black Watch — a group of British soldiers who had been moved at the request of the US from the relatively safe Basra to Baghdad. The Guardian is reporting that the brother of one of the Black Watch soldiers killed yesterday expressed anger this morning over the regiment’s deployment. Craig Lowe said that his brother, Private Paul Lowe, did not believe that the Black Watch should have been deployed in central Iraq and that his family was “heartbroken” over his death. The British troops were moved to Baghdad in order to free up more U.S. troops to take part in the forthcoming battle for Fallujah.
