BAGHDAD - The U.S. military says security forces killed at least 13 militants in overnight clashes in Iraq's capital.
The military says Abrams tanks and drone-launched Hellfire missiles were used to quell attacks on U.S. and Iraqi soldiers.
But Iraqi police and hospital officials say seven civilians died when U.S. helicopters fired on homes and shops in Baghdad's Sadr City district early Saturday.
They spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not allowed to release information.
Sadr City is a stronghold of the Mahdi Army militia of cleric Muqtada al-Sadr.
