BAGHDAD, Dec. 14 (UPI) -- Three explosions rocked the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, Sunday night, a few hours after the announcement of Saddam Hussein's arrest by U.S. forces.
The Qatar-based al-Jazeera satellite channel said that a fuel tanker also blew up just outside the Palestine Hotel in the capital.
