NEWS IN BRIEF
Iraq's violence
claims victim on
ruling council
Wadding Qowh SaCc
BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) — A
leading figure in Iraq’s Governing
Council died Thursday of
wounds suffered in an ambush
last week, marking the first time
Iraq’s violence has claimed the
life of a member of the U.S.-
appointed administration.
Aquila al-Hashimi’s death
came as a bomb damaged a
hotel housing the offices of NBC
News, raising fears of attacks
against international media. A
Somali guard was killed and an
NBC sound engineer was slight
ly wounded in the early morning
explosion at the small al-Aike
Hotel in the city’s fashionable
Karrada district.
In the north, eight American
soldiers were wounded —
three of them seriously —
when their convoy was
ambushed with roadside
bombs and small arms fire in
Mosul, Iraq’s third-largest city.
The tenuous security situation
prompted U.N. Secretary-
General Kofi Annan to order a
further reduction in U.N. interna
tional staff in Iraq after two
bombings at U.N. headquarters.
Strong quake hits
northern Japan
TOKYO (AP) — A strong
quake with a preliminary mag
nitude of 7.8 rocked the north
ern Japan island of Hokkaido
early Friday morning, knocking
out power, derailing a train and
touching off an industrial fire.
At least 12 people were report
ed injured.
A powerful aftershock of
magnitude 6 followed an hour
later, the U.S. Geological
Survey said.
The government warned
local residents to avoid coastal
areas due to the possibility of
tsunami, or ocean waves
caused by seismic activity.
The quake, which struck at
4:50 a.m., was focused off
Hokkaido’s eastern shore.
Junior environmental design major Cheryl Dale picks up her 2002-2003 Aggieland Yearbook on Ross Street
Thursday afternoon. Yearbooks are now available for pickup through the next week in front of Reed
McDonald.
