"BAGHDAD (AP) -- Two U.S. soldiers were killed by an Iraqi trooper who opened fire on them during a training exercise Saturday, raising fresh concerns about Iraq's security forces as the Americans prepare to withdraw from the country by the end of this year.
Another soldier was killed Saturday during a military operation in central Iraq, making it one of the deadliest days for U.S. forces in the country in months.
A U.S. statement confirmed that two soldiers were killed and one was wounded in northern Iraq but gave no further details.
But U.S. and Iraqi officials said the shooting occurred during a training exercise at Forward Operating Base Marez, in the northern city of Mosul. A U.S. official said only one Iraqi soldier appeared to have fired on the Americans. But two Iraqi officials said two assailants were captured.
The officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release the information."
