The wreckage at the site of an earlier car bomb. Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty MOSUL, IRAQ - Lecturers and Muslim students at northern Iraq's Mosul University staged a sit-in recently to protest deadly attacks against Christian students, RFE/RL's Radio Free Iraq (RFI) reports. A student activist who requested anonymity told RFI that the action is in support of Christian students who have been the victims of bomb attacks and murder. A roadside bomb and a car bomb exploded near buses transporting students from the predominantly Christian town of Al-Hamdaniya to Mosul University on May 2. One civilian was killed and 100 others, mostly students, were wounded. Christian students stopped attending classes at Mosul University after that attack in fear for their safety.
