Iraqi officials say a roadside bomb has killed the governor of the southern Shi'ite majority province of Muthanna. VOA's Brian Padden reports from the northern Iraqi city of Irbil.
Insurgents 1 killed the governor of Iraq's southern province of Muthanna, Mohammed Ali al-Hassani, in a roadside bomb attack in the provincial 2 capital Samawa. The governor was traveling in a convoy 3 and in an armored car for protection when the bomb exploded.
Ahmed Marzoq with the Muthanna Governing Council says the bombing was a politically-motivated.
He says they used a very special and powerful bomb to penetrate 4 the governor's armored car.
Officials say at least three of Mohammed Ali al-Hassani's bodyguards 6 were wounded in the blast.
On August 11, Khalil Jalil Hamza, governor of Diwaniyah province, and police chief, Maj. Gen. Khalid Hassan, were killed, along with their driver and a bodyguard 5 in a roadside bombing attack.
The governor was a member of the influential 7 Supreme 8 Islamic Iraqi Council, a group led by Shiite politician Abdul-Aziz al-Hakim. Hakim's loyalists have been fighting the Mahdi Army militia 9 for control of the oil-rich south.
A vehicle curfew was imposed on Samawa shortly after Monday's bombing.
