Ex GROM commandos ambushed and killed in Iraq

Two ex GROM commandos who worked for the Blackwell American security firm were killed on Saturday in Iraq. While driving from Baghdad to a military camp they came under attack from heavy gunfire. Among the death toll were two Americans working for the company. The dead Poles served in the Iraq mission as soldiers earlier this year and were later recruited by Blackwell which gathers commandos from world's best special units such as Delta and the Navy Seals. The spot where the two Poles were killed is known as one of the most dangerous places in Iraq and a place subject to almost daily ambushes. The assassins disclosed themselves on an internet site claiming they were members of Al-Qaeda linked and led by the Abu Musab Zakarw terrorist group. (Rzeczpospolita p. A1) M.G.
