BAGHDAD, Sept. 19 (Xinhuanet) -- Two suicide car bombers separately blew themselves up at Iraqi police commandos in two towns south of Baghdad on Monday, killing seven commandos and one civilian, police said.

    "A suicide bomber drove an explosive packed vehicle near a police commandos patrol in the town of Muhmoudiyah, some 30 km south of Baghdad," an Interior Ministry source told Xinhua on condition of anonymity.

    "Another suicide bomber struck another police commandos on the entrance of Latifiyah, about 40 km south of the capital," the source said.

    Seven commandos and a civilian were killed in the blasts, he said, adding two commandos were also wounded in the attacks.

    The two towns are part of the so-called triangle of death in southern Baghdad, where insurgents frequently attacked US and Iraqi security forces. Enditem
