An Iraqi Journalist Asserts That Hussein Was Killed During the Bombing of Baghdad

A well-know Iraqi journalist, Amr Naffah, said in the interview he gave to Al-Jazeera television that Saddam Hussein was killed during the bombing of the Al-Mansur district in Baghdad on the night of April 7-8.

Amr Naffah says that during this airstrike Saddam's sons Udei and Kusei were also killed, as well as half of the Iraqi leaders.

At the same time, the leadership of the American secret services believes that this statement could be made to stop the attempts to find Saddam Hussein and his close associates.
