MOSUL, Iraq Fierce fighting has raged between American troops and insurgents in the Iraqi city of Mosul.

The U-S military says the fighting began when U-S troops responding to a mortar strike on a base were hit by rifle fire and rocket-propelled grenades from a mosque.

A U-S tank and a Stryker armored vehicle have been severely damaged, and several cars and parts of buildings were left burning.

There were no American casualties but nine insurgents were killed.
