MNF-I strike kills Zarqawi associate
FALLUJAH, Iraq - A precision strike in northwest Fallujah, conducted at 3 a.m. Oct. 26, by Multi-National Force-Iraq has taken another toll on the Zarqawi network. This strike on a Zarqawi safe house further erodes the organizations capability to conduct attacks on the citizens of Fallujah and Iraq.
Multiple sources reported that a known associate of the Zarqawi network was present at the time of the strike.
Zarqawi terrorists continue to endanger the lives of the people of Iraq, by conducting operations in residential areas and exposing the civilian populous to harm.
Recent strikes and raids targeting the Abu Musab Al Zarqawi network have severely degraded its ability to conduct attacks and have effectively reduced the influence of its terrorist leader as made evident by the recent merger of the Zarqawi network with Al Qaeda.
The United State has offered a $25 million reward for the capture or death of Zarqawi in continued demonstration of the commitment to rid Iraq of terror.
