Osama Youssef Kashmoula

Osama Youssef Kashmoula was a Governor of Mosul killed during an attack in 2004.[1] Kashmoula was assaulted between the cities of Beiji and Tikrit north of Baghdad as he went to the capital. Insurgents have repeatedly attacked local officials, who are seen as being collaborators with American forces, but had not a killed an official as senior as Kashmoula since the assassinations last month of Iraq's most senior career diplomat and a top Education Ministry official.[2]
