The International Committee of the Red Cross has suspended its work in Baghdad, after gunfire killed one of its workers.

The organzation called the situation in the Iraqi capital "chaotic and unpredictable."

The agency said Wednesday it was suspending visits to hospitals in Baghdad because it was too dangerous to move around.

The International Committee of the Red Cross is virtually the only aid agency working in Iraq at the moment. It says hospitals in Baghdad are overwhelmed with war casualties and are critically low on medical supplies.



It's much too early to celebrate...
