Four British soldiers and a Kuwaiti interpreter were killed today in an ambush in southern Iraq, the military said.
The patrol struck a roadside bomb and was hit by small-arms fire at about 2am local time in the Hayaniyah district west of Basra, 340 miles south-east of Baghdad, said British military spokeswoman Capt. Katie Brown.
“Four British soldiers and a Kuwaiti civilian interpreter were killed and another British soldier was seriously wounded,” Brown said.
