IRAQ-US-UNREST-NAJAF
US soldiers take position near the Wadi al-Salam (Valley of Peace) cemetery in Najaf 15 August 2004 as fighting resumed the holy city, one day after negotiations to end the uprising collapsed. Gunfire boomed across the city after the interim government said its offensive against Shiite Muslim militiamen would continue in the wake of failed peace talks. An AFP correspondent heard tank fire and saw smoke rising from the direction of the cemetery, north of the holy shrine of Imam Ali, which has remained a militia stronghold since a spring uprising against foreign troops. .AFP PHOTO/Karim SAHIB
