Insurgent attacks during the past 24 hours have killed eight U.S. soldiers in Iraq, the military said Tuesday.
Three soldiers died in a car bombing in central Baghdad on Tuesday and a fourth -- who was manning an observation post -- was killed by a drive-by gunman, Task Force Baghdad spokesman, Maj. Darryl Wright said.
Four other American soldiers were killed by a bomb on Monday, the military said. They were assigned to the 155th Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Marine Expeditionary Force.
The explosive "detonated near their vehicle" in fighting in Haswa, south of Baghdad.
The deaths bring the number of U.S. troops killed in the Iraq war to 1,643, according to U.S. military reports.
