Iraq: Coalition responsible for most civilian deaths

"More Iraqi civilians may have been killed by coalition forces and their allies than by insurgents, according to Iraqi government figures.

"The figures, which have been compiled by Iraq’s Ministry of Health, will be disclosed on the BBC’s Panorama programme tomorrow.

"They show coalition troops and Iraqi security forces were responsible for 60% of Iraqi civilian deaths in conflict-related violence in a six month period ...

"The BBC says that in an interview the US ambassador John Negroponte, prior to the release of the figures, said he believed the largest amount of civilian casualties were due to car bombings ...

"Panorama’s film, Exit Strategy, reported by John Simpson from Baghdad, is due to be shown at 10.15pm tomorrow on BBC 1."
