Bomb attack against UN envoy to Iraq

 The convoy of Ad Melkert, UN's special representative to Iraq, was attacked by a roadside bomb while leaving Najaf after a meeting with Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani. Melkert was unharmed. Reuters reports one policeman killed and three injured, but city police officials deny the attack even took place.
