FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE


UPDATE: REPORT OF RED CRESCENT HOSPITAL BOMBING

CAMP AS SAYLIYAH, Qatar - Although the event is still under investigation, U.S. Central Command has found no evidence at this point to support an allegation that Coalition aircraft bombed a Red Crescent maternity hospital in Baghdad, Iraq, April 2.

Coalition forces target only legitimate military targets and go to great lengths to minimize civilian casualties and damage to civilian facilities.
