BAGHDAD - A roadside bomb hit a bus traveling in southern Iraq on Tuesday, killing at least 16 civilians, while other violence killed at least 26 people around Iraq, police said.

The U.S. military reported three American soldiers killed Monday by a roadside bomb north of Baghdad, bringing to eight the number of troops who died that day. It was the deadliest day for American forces in Iraq since Sept. 10, when 10 troops died.

At least 22 other people were wounded in the attack on the bus traveling from Najaf to Basra, a policeman said on condition of anonymity because he wasn’t authorized to release the information.
