The claims of abuse and killings, from different sources, appear, however,
to follow a consistent pattern. Dr Ali Abbas, who arrived in Baghdad from
Fallujah four days ago, worked at a clinic in the city which was bombed by
the Americans. He said that at least five patients were killed.

The doctor said that the attack took place despite assurances from American
officers that they were aware of its location and would ensure that it was
spared military action.

Dr Abbas, 28, said: "We had five people under treatment and they were
killed. We do not know why the clinic was hit. Our colleagues from the
Fallujah General Hospital, which was further out in the city, had talked to
the Americans and had told us that they would avoid attacking us.

"Afterwards myself and other members of staff went from house to house when
we could to help people who had been hurt. Many of them died in front of us
because we did not have the medicine or the facilities to carry out
operations. We contacted the doctors at the Fallujah hospital and said how
bad the situation was. We wanted them to evacuate the more badly injured
and send drugs and more doctors. They tried to do that, but they said the
Americans stopped them.

"One of things we noticed the most were the numbers of people killed by
American snipers. They were not just men but women and some children as
well. The youngest one I saw was a four-year-old boy. Almost all these
people had been shot in the head, chest or neck."
