The Multi-National Force (MNF) on Friday announced it is investigating reports on Abu Mosab Al-Zarqawi's arrest nearby Fallujah.

An MNF officer did not confirm or deny the arrest, noting that the US forces are still investigating the reports.

Meanwhile, an MNF major said the force, based upon intelligence reports, executed Monday a number of arrest operations 45 kilometers northeast of Fallujah to capture key Al-Qaeda officials, Al-Zarqawi's assistants, and others involved in providing logistic support for foreign fighters and suicide attackers in Fallujah and Ramadi.

The major added that 61 people were arrested in the operation, which was announced before, among them were major Al-Qaeda leaders in Iraq, while quantities of weapons and ammunitions were seized and destroyed in the operation.

Meanwhile, sources in the Iraqi Army said that Al-Zarqawi could be among those arrested in the operation on Monday.

KUNA has some of the best reports from Iraq. Trust me they don't make stuff up for fun like many news sources.

I hope it's true, but these Middle Eastern news sources aren't exactly the most reliable.

KUNA isn't reporting we caught him they are just reporting that we are investiagting if we caught him. He changes his appearence all the time, which is why the Iraqis caught and released him before.

On the contrary some of them, Kuna included, are far far more accurate than the western news agencies covering Iraq.
