Beiji police Colonel Mudhher al Qaisi confirmed yesterday that six civilian farmers and two children who were trying to escape the scene of a US helocopter attack on a civilian area in Diyala province were also slaughtered by the US military on Wednesday. The school in the village of al-Nedawat close to the Iranian border was also hit when the US helicopter fired on it.
