"The Iraqi Resistance killed four rabbis near the gates of Baghdad International Airport on Tuesday morning (May 31, 2005) when a suicide bomber attacked their black GMC at 10:00 a.m. Baghdad time.
[Muffakirat al-Islam] Reporter quoted an Iraqi airport security guard, Nasir al-Dallawi, that the attack targeted four rabbis, who came to Iraq to visit British and American troops in Baghdad and southern Iraq, and their Greek driver. Their bodies were removed from near the airport gates after suspending all air travel for one hour.
The director of "Sindibad Travel Agency", which is affiliated with Iraqi Airways, confirmed the report: "The car was carrying four black robbed rabbis wearing yarmulkes who were heading for Al-Dallal US military base to the north of Baghdad. They were destined later to visit Al-Najjaf US military base and other nearby military bases.
He also confirmed that the suicider used a Nissan car that belonged to the Ministry of Transport."
