The report, titled "Iraq: Killings of Civilians in Basra and Al-Amara," also criticized UK authorities for failing to conduct investigations into the killings of civilians, citing the case of the death of 8-year-old Hanan Saleh Matrud last August near Basra as an example. Saleh stood with other children about 70 meters from a British armored vehicle that stopped near the entrance of the alley which leads to her home.
