From the AP via WMTW via Buzzflash:

FALLUJAH, Iraq A U-S military offensive in Fallujah (fuh-LOO'-juh) is being blamed for over a dozen Iraqi civilian deaths -- including six children.

Witnesses say U-S soldiers fired on a car with eight people inside. A hospital official say the driver was shot in the head, and the car plunged into a canal. Later, the official says, the bodies of two women and five children arrived.

Also, according to witnesses, a strike against a suspected terrorist safe house in Fallujah killed at least four Iraqis. There is news footage showing two homes flattened, and residents using their bare hands to search the rubble for survivors.

The U-S military has not confirmed the reports.
