Blast rips through Baghdad hotel
(this from BBC - also on CNN now..)
The Mount Lebanon hotel was reduced to rubble
A powerful blast has ripped through a small hotel and houses in central Baghdad, killing at least 27 people and injuring 41, the US military reports.
As bodies were pulled from the burning rubble of the Mount Lebanon Hotel in the Karrada district witnesses said the casualties included children.

Iraqi police said it appeared to have been a rocket attack but observers said the damage suggested a powerful bomb.

The hotel is thought to be used mainly by Iraqis and other Arabs.

Reporting the casualty figures, US Army Col Ralph Baker said a number of foreigners were among the victims.

The blast sent up a column of fire and a huge plume of smoke into the night sky.
