IRAQ: Local Iraqi Citizen Foils Car Bomb Plot

/noticias.info/ Mosul, Iraq -- A Mosul citizen prevented a car bomb attack after the anonymous individual informed Multi-National Forces of the suspected explosive device in the Mosul neighborhood of Al Wahda on Oct. 27.

Soldiers from 3rd Battalion, 21st Infantry Regiment, 1st Brigade, 25th Infantry Division (Stryker Brigade Combat Team) responded based on the citizen’s information, and confirmed anti-Iraqi forces rigged the car with explosives. An Explosive Ordnance Disposal team destroyed the car bomb.

The citizen’s ability to identify the car bomb and courageously inform the appropriate authorities potentially saved the lives of Iraqi Security Forces, Multi-National Forces and Iraqi citizens.

Iraqi Security Forces and Multi-National Forces continue to work together with members of the community to make Iraq safe, prosperous and democratic. Local citizens are asked to cooperate with security forces by providing information that leads to the capture and arrest of anti-Iraqi forces.
