STORYLINE:
Coalition forces battled militiamen loyal to radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr in several Iraqi cities on Friday, saying they killed about 300 militants in Najaf over two days of fighting.
Battles in other Shiite areas killed dozens more, according to Iraqi authorities.
The death toll among the anti-coalition fighters was among the largest in a single continuing engagement since the end of the war to oust Saddam Hussein last year.
The outbreak of violence began on Thursday after several days of building tension between al-Sadr's militia and US and Iraqi forces in Najaf, 160 kilometres (100 miles) south of Baghdad.
Najaf's governor, Adnan al-Zurufi, put the toll even higher, saying 400 members of Sadr's militia were killed and more than 1,000 arrested.
Sheik Mahmoud al-Sudani, a spokesman for Muqtada al-Sadr, said the US and the governor of Najaf bore the responsibility for the recent escalation of violence in Najaf.
Some of the worst violence hit the Baghdad neighbourhood of Sadr City, where the Health Ministry said 19 people were killed and 111 wounded during fighting on Thursday and early Friday between US troops and al-Sadr militants.
In Samarra, 100 kilometres (60 miles) north of the capital, guerrillas attacked a convoy of 10 US Humvees at dawn, witnesses said. US helicopters fired rockets at insurgent positions and the US convoy pulled out.
Ahmed Jadou'a, an official at Samarra Hospital, said at least two people were killed and 16 injured during the fighting. Two houses were also destroyed.
Also on Friday, US forces patrolled the restive town of Ramadi, west of the Iraqi capital Baghdad.
In the centre of the town a truck carrying supplies for Coalition forces was attacked by insurgents and left to burn.
