Baghdad - Attacks on civilians and US-led coalition troops continued in Iraq amid warnings of "some really bad days to come," as the country marked the first anniversary of the war to oust Saddam Hussein.

Following a series of blasts at Baghdad hotels in recent days, rockets were fired overnight into the large compound housing of the US-led Coalition Provisional Authority (CPA), and a US soldier was wounded in northern Iraq.

No casualties were reported at the compound, the site of frequent rocket attacks, while the US soldier was hurt Friday in the city of Mosul when a rocket-propelled grenade was fired at the convoy he was travelling in.
