Coalition Forces detain 14, destroy two bomb caches
BAGHDAD, Iraq – Coalition Forces detained 14 suspected terrorists during Sunday morning operations in Ninewa and Anbar provinces targeting al-Qaeda in Iraq senior leaders and their operatives.
In Mosul, Coalition Forces captured an alleged al-Qaeda in Iraq senior leader and three other suspected terrorists during an early morning raid. The alleged senior leader is believed to be responsible for directing rocket attacks.
Coalition Forces raided two buildings in Karmah looking for a suspected al-Qaeda in Iraq leader. On scene, the ground forces detained two men who had a stash of grenades and found two weapons caches filled with explosive chemicals and bomb-making materials. A Coalition Forces explosives team safely destroyed the cache on site, and ground forces detained three more suspected terrorists there.
Two more operations in Anbar province netted five suspected terrorists. Coalition Forces searched three buildings west of Tarmiyah looking for an al-Qaeda in Iraq cell leader and detained two individuals for their alleged involvement with the cell. Coalition Forces also raided two buildings west of Abu Ghraib targeting a terrorist believed to be involved in vehicle-borne improvised explosive device attacks against Coalition Forces and detained three suspected terrorists.
“We’re maintaining steady, deliberate momentum of capturing al-Qaeda in Iraq senior leaders and operatives,” said Lt. Col. Christopher Garver, MNF-I spokesperson. “We will pursue al-Qaeda no matter where they go in Iraq and each capture is a detriment to their ability to operate.”

Maoists attack police posts in eastern India, 9 dead

PATNA, India, July 1 (Reuters) - Maoist rebels killed nine people, including five policemen, in eastern India’s remote Bihar state early on Sunday during an attack on two police stations, officials said.
Some 200 rebels were involved in the pre-dawn raid, stripping dozens of wounded policemen of their weapons after the raid before they fled into the darkness.
Sunday morning’s attack came after a two-day strike against the government’s economic policies that was called by the Maoists earlier this week.
The Maoists operate out of jungle bases across a swathe of 13 Indian states running up the eastern flank of the country, and say they are fighting for the rights of poor peasants and landless labourers.
