Explosions Rock Baghdad, Basra
Story aired: Tuesday, November 11, 2003



An explosion outside the Iraqi city of Basra left 6 Iraqi civilians dead today. In Baghdad, a second explosion killed two Iraqi policemen and two prisoners as U.S. troops led a group of prisoners to a courthouse.

The attacks came as coalition commander Ricardo Sanchez announced 20 people possibly linked to Al Qaeda have been arrested. Sanchez did not say when the suspects were arrested, where they're being held, or whether any have been released.
