Multi-National Forces detain four
MOSUL, Iraq -- Multi-National Forces from 1st Brigade, 25th
Infantry Division (Stryker Brigade Combat Team), detained four
individuals in northern Iraq Feb. 4.
While conducting a cordon and search, Soldiers of the 2nd Brigade,
14th Cavalry Regiment, detained two people suspected of terrorist
activities south of Mosul. Soldiers from the 3rd Brigade, 21st
Infantry Regiment, also conducted a cordon and search, which led to
the detainment of two people suspected of terrorist activities in
eastern Mosul. Suspects are in custody with no Multi-National Forces
injuries reported.
Iraqi Security Force and Multi-National Force operations in the Ninewa
Province and the Mosul area resulted in a safe election day during
which thousands of Iraqi citizens exercised their right to vote,
influenced their future and proved the terrorists to be in the
minority. Since Jan. 5, Iraqi Security Forces and Multi-National
Forces have detained 408 individuals and confiscated numerous weapons
and munitions.
