Gunmen kill deputy governor of Baghdad
BAGHDAD, Iraq -- Gunmen killed the deputy governor of Baghdad on his way to work Monday, Iraqi officials said.
Hatim Kamil was assassinated in a drive-by shooting, said Baghdad Governor Ali al-Haidari. He had no other details.
Interior Ministry spokesman Col. Adnan Abdul-Rahman said Kamil was killed when gunmen opened fire on his car in the southern Doura neighborhood. Two of his bodyguards were also wounded in the attack, Abdul-Rahman said.
Insurgents have killed dozens of Iraqi politicians and government workers in recent months in a bid to destabilize the country's reconstruction.
