Five Ukrainians were injured in Iraq in a roadside ambush, according to a Ukraine Ministry of Defence statement. The attack occurred near the As Suwayrah community in Wasit province, central Iraq, during a routine patrol. Five of eight Ukrainians aboard one vehicle were hit. Two were evacuated to a U.S. hospital in Baghdad, two were treated at a Ukrainian facility and one soldier required only treatment at the scene. A Ukrainian trooper was killed in the same region on Sunday by a roadside bomb detonated by remote-control, the ministry said.
