More than 50-Iraqi soldiers have reportedly been found shot to death. Iraqi police say they discovered 51-bodies on a remote road in eastern Iraq, apparently the victims of an ambush as they were heading home on leave. There are conflicting reports on the precise number of dead, whether they were members of the Iraqi army or the Iraqi National Guard and whether they were all killed execution-style. An Iraqi spokesperson says insurgents fired rocket-propelled grenades at two vehicles carrying the unarmed troops. U-S military sources are confirming the incident, but are unsure of the number of dead.
