BAGHDAD, May 4 (Reuters) - The U.S. military said on Friday it had identified two more senior al Qaeda in Iraq leaders killed in an operation north of Baghdad three days ago.

It said the latest two confirmed killed were Sabah Hilal al-Shihawi, who it said was the religious adviser of Muharib Abdul Latif al-Jubouri, and Abu Ammar al-Masri, who it described as a foreign fighter.

The U.S. military said on Thursday it had killed Jubouri, the senior information minister for al Qaeda in Iraq, in a raid in Taji, north of Baghdad. Shihawi and Masri were killed in the same operation.
