Three people were killed and 13 wounded in separate attacks in central and eastern Iraq on Tuesday, the police said. A roadside bomb detonated near an intersection in eastern Baghdad, killing a traffic policeman and wounding another, an Interior Ministry source told Xinhua on condition of anonymity. In a separate incident, two traffic policemen were injured when a roadside bomb went off near their police vehicle in Baghdad\'s eastern district of Baladiyat, the source said. Also in Baghdad, a civilian was injured when two roadside bombs went off in a quick succession in the southern district of Rasheed, the source added. In central Fallujah city, some 50 km west of the capital, gunmen opened fire from their assault rifles on the car of a government employee, killing him and wounding his wife, a local police source anonymously told Xinhua. In Iraq\'s eastern province of Diyala, a member of a Sunni anti- Qaida paramilitary group, known as Awakening Council, was killed when a sticky bomb attached to his car detonated in the provincial capital city of Baquba, some 65 km northeast of Baghdad, a source from the provincial operations command told Xinhua on condition of anonymity. The blast also wounded a civilian who was in the car with the group member, the source said.
