'Yasser'
Explosion
'Yasser', a driver for The Times of London Iraq bureau, was killed in one of the bomb attacks on hotels in Baghdad.
He had just left Baghdad's Hamra hotel, where the Times's bureau is based, when a suicide bomber in a white minibus blew himself up outside the building. Yasser had worked for the paper for seven years, since the fall of Saddam Hussein.
