Iraqi forces kill 'senior al-Qaeda leader' - Last Modified: 21 Jan 2012 17:33

Iraqi forces have killed a senior leader of a group affiliated to al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) and arrested 19 others people, including foreign fighters, in a firefight just outside the northern city of Mosul, a government statement has said.
While violence is lower across Iraq from its peak, attacks remain common, particularly in Mosul. More than 200 people have been killed in violence since the December 18 withdrawal of US forces.
