IRAQI RESISTANCE

Al-Jazeera: Resistance attacks continue in north Iraq

A US military vehicle has been destroyed in one of several attacks against occupation forces in the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk.

The vehicle was destroyed when an explosive device blew up on a road 35km west of Kirkuk late on Tuesday, according to police and witnesses.

The oil-rich city itself was rocked by a series of explosions.

A mortar bomb was fired against a building used by US troops and local police without causing casualties, according to a local emergency police commander.
