On 27 March, US armed forces were reported to have fired missiles with cluster bomblets near Najaf, while on 26 March it was reported that UK Harrier jets had dropped cluster bombs on Iraqi troops. Allegations have also been made that cluster bombs have been dropped on the city of Basra and may be responsible for civilian deaths and injuries

Some people might say this has nothing to do with Ireland. But for me every time some one kills some one in this world it affects me. And I do hope most of the readers of this site feels the same.
For more information, please download Amnesty International's previous press releases on the use of cluster bombs:
