Men gathered outside Sadr's house\u003cbr/\u003eAn Iraqi politician said ten of his private guards were killed on Thursday during a battle in Mosul with insurgents and Apache helicopter-backed U.S. forces, who he accused of killing several of his aides.\u003cbr/\u003eNational Assembly member Fawaz al-Jarba, a Sunni, said a group of insurgents started shooting at his house in the Falahi neighbourhood eastern Mosul, 360 kilometres (225 miles) northwest of Baghdad, around midday.\u003cbr/\u003eAl-Jarba told The Associated Press that his personal security men returned fire, sparking a clash that raised the attention of U.S. soldiers in the area.\u003cbr/\u003eAl-Jarba, a recent candidate for parliament speaker, said several Apache helicopters were flying over his home and one fired at it, leaving a large hole in his ceiling.\u003cbr/\u003eEight of his bodyguards were killed during the initial battle and two died from their wounds later Thursday in hospital, he said.\u003cbr/\u003eAn investigation has been launched into the incident, which involved forces from the 3rd Battalion, 21st Infantry Regiment, who observed insurgents on a rooftop near al-Jarba's home, the US military said in a statement. \u003cbr/\u003eIt was unclear from the statement if U.S. forces were responsible for any of the casualties.\u003cbr/\u003eMosul has been a constant hotbed of insurgent activity - the city's police commander said this week that about 80 insurgents fled to the city following a large-scale week-long US military campaign targeting fighters linked to Jordanian-born militant Abu Musab al-Zarqawi in a region bordering Syria.\u003cbr/\u003eMeanwhile in Baghdad, two children were killed and their mother was wounded when a homemade bomb exploded outside a Shiite Muslim mosque in Baghdad, and a US soldier was killed in a roadside bomb attack.\u003cbr/\u003eAn Iraqi national guardsman was also believed to have been in killed in the attack near the mosque, but this could not be independently confirmed.\u003cbr/\u003eThe explosion happened in Baghdad's Saadiya neighbourhood at 11.15 p.m. (2015gmt) on Thursday outside the Imam al-Mahdi mosque. The massive blast caused damage to the mosque, nearby shops and houses. \u003cbr/\u003eTwo brothers, aged 5 and 9 years old, were killed and their mother injured in the garden of a nearby house. Targeting places of worship has been a routine practice for Islamic extremists bent on sparking wide scale sectarian conflict in post-Saddam Iraq.\u003cbr/\u003eIraqi police said at least five people were wounded in the explosion at the al-Imam al-Mahdi Shiite mosque.\u003cbr/\u003eAlso in Baghdad, an improvised explosive device exploded as a US convoy drove past, destroying one military truck.\u003cbr/\u003eThe explosion happened on the Mohammad al Qassim highway, which leads to New Baghdad. \u003cbr/\u003eThere was no immediate confirmation of casualties.\u003cbr/\u003eThe Sunni-led insurgency has stepped up attacks on Shiite targets since a new Shiite-dominated government was announced late last month, killing more than 400 people.  \u003cbr/\u003eAlso early on Friday an American soldier was killed in a vehicle accident caused by a roadside bomb attack north of Baghdad, the US military said.\u003cbr/\u003eA military statement said the soldier, from 1st Corps Support Command, was attacked during a patrol at about midnight near Taji, 20 kilometres (12 miles) north of Baghdad.\u003cbr/\u003eThe soldier was evacuated to a nearby medical facility where he was pronounced dead.\u003cbr/\u003eAs of Thursday, May 19, 2005, at least 1,627 members of the U.S. military have died since the beginning of the Iraq war in March 2003, according to an Associated Press count. \u003cbr/\u003eMeanwhile, Baghdad's main Sunni Muslim mosques were closed for three days on Friday to complain about their alleged mistreatment at the hands of Iraq's majority Shiites - who they blame for kidnapping and killing several of their clerics.\u003cbr/\u003eThe move, called by the influential Muslim Clerics Association, came as Sunni Muslim clerics also delivered fiery sermons in Baghdad and in cities like Ramadi, capital of the volatile Sunni Triangle in western Iraq.\u003cbr/\u003eSpeaking to worshippers on Friday, Sheikh Ahmed Al-Samirai, called on Sunnis to exercise self-restraint, and called for a government investigation into the killings of Sunni clerics \"otherwise things will deteriorate and there will never be security (in the country)\".\u003cbr/\u003eRecently, Harith al-Dhari, head of Iraq's influential Sunni Muslim Association of Muslim Scholars, blamed the deaths of Sunni clerics on the Badr Brigades, the militia of Iraq's leading Shiite group, the Supreme Council of the Islamic Revolution in Iraq.\u003cbr/\u003eBrigade general secretary Hadi al-Amri denied the charge and said the Sunni association wanted to \"push Iraq into a sectarian conflict\".\u003cbr/\u003eIn the sacred Shi'ite city of Najaf, Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr, who led uprisings against US troops in Iraq, asked his supporters on Friday to avoid sectarian conflict.\u003cbr/\u003e\u003c/span\u003e\n\u003c/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class='action-container flex justify-between'\u003e\n\u003cbutton aria-expanded='false' aria-label='Read more
