Al Mada newspaper reported Tuesday that one suspected terrorist was killed and 54 arrested in various operations around Baghdad over the past 48 hours.

A Ministry of Defense statement said 20 unexploded bombs were discovered in Baghdad and Diyala, the newspaper reported.

It also reported that a blast in Etafaiya, west of Baghdad, Monday killed two people and wounded five. In Sadr City, east of Baghdad, a U.S. airstrike hit the Shiite-majority area.

The Sadr office in Sadr city said the airstrike hit between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m. Monday. The Mahdi army was ordered not to respond, but its members were told to hide in order to prevent arrests, the newspaper reported.

Officials in Sadr City hospital told the paper one person was killed and five injured in the attack.
