    BAGHDAD, Nov. 7 (Xinhuanet) -- One US soldier was killed and another wounded when insurgents attacked their convoy Sunday west of Baghdad, the US military said in a statement. "A soldier of the 81st Brigade Combat Team is dead and one
wounded as a result of an attack on their convoy around 11 a.m. (0800 GMT)," the statement said.

   "Secondary explosions at the scene were from the cargo the convoy was carrying," it added without elaborating. Over 1,120 US service members have been killed since the US-led invasion last March. Enditem
