IRAQ: Fifteen suspected terrorists detained in Coalition operations (Mosul)

/noticias.info/ BAGHDAD – Coalition forces captured three wanted terrorist suspects and detained a dozen additional men during operations targeting al-Qaeda in Iraq leadership and financiers Saturday and Sunday.

Coalition forces targeted al-Qaeda in Iraq senior leaders and their associates during a series of operations in Mosul Sunday, capturing two wanted men and four additional suspects. The men are believed to be close associates of a terrorist leader in the city. Also Sunday in Mosul, Coalition forces conducted an operation to disrupt a planned suicide car bombing attack and detained two suspected terrorists.

Coalition forces conducted two operations Sunday in Tikrit, about 100 miles north of Baghdad, targeting individuals who finance al-Qaeda in Iraq. They captured a wanted man who allegedly leads a terrorist attack cell in addition to funding terrorist operations, and discovered a large sum of U.S. money on the scene. Five additional suspects were detained in the operations.

In Abu Ghraib, about 15 miles west of Baghdad, Coalition forces detained one suspected terrorist during a Saturday operation targeting associates of an AQI leader in the Northern Belt around Baghdad.

“Operations will continue to keep al-Qaeda in Iraq on the run,” said Maj. John Hall, MNF-I spokesman. notas_de_prensa_archivo
