BAGHDAD, June 3 (Reuters) - Six U.S. soldiers were killed in five separate attacks across Iraq on Saturday, the U.S. military said on Sunday, days after it recorded its deadliest monthly toll in more than two years.

The attacks were in Baghdad and in the volatile Diyala and Nineveh provinces to the north of the capital. All but one of the soldiers were killed by roadside bombs.
