An Iraqi woman comforts her daughter, injured during the U.S.
bombardment, in a Baghdad hospital April 16, 2003. Iraqi and foreign
doctors said the 33 hospitals in the city of five million people were
in no fit state to cope with Iraqs war-wounded or patients with chronic
diseases and they had yet to recieve significant medical assistance
from outside the country. REUTERS/Gleb Garanich
