TAJI, Iraq – Iraqi Army and Iraqi Police Forces lead an intelligence driven raid in Muqdadiyah July 10 that led to the detainment of ten targeted suspected terrorists allegedly linked and responsible for providing a safe haven to al-Qaeda in Iraq.

 

The capture and detainment of these suspected terrorists will continue to disrupt efforts to control the area while providing an opportunity for tribal leadership to operate and secure their region.

 

Advised by Coalition Forces, Iraqi Forces seized four weapons, material for making improvised explosive devices, a grenade, and various documents.  Iraqi Forces also identified and destroyed several anti-tank mines and mortar rounds during a controlled detonation.

 

No Iraqi or Coalition Forces members were injured during this operation.
