Nighttime Blasts Shake Baghdad

http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/meast/09/19/sprj.irq.main/index.html

BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Two explosions were heard in Baghdad on Friday night, and the U.S. military sent up flares as it searched for the source of the blasts.

One explosion was in the Al Mansour neighborhood of west Baghdad, a CNN cameraman reported. It is the same neighborhood in which the U.S. military targeted former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein and other senior Iraqi officials in April.
