Description: "03/28/2004: Armed assailants attacked a convoy, en route to a power station, killing two private security guards in Mosul, Iraq.

Three other British engineers traveling in the same convoy escaped unharmed. No group claimed responsibility. The act was an apparent effort to undermine reconstruction efforts in the city. "
