Multi-National Force - Iraq ^

BASRA — Operation Charge of the Knights has successfully completed missions in several districts -- rooting out criminal elements all across the city since it began on March 25.
The Iraqi Army and Iraqi Police have formed a combined effort to systematically move through the districts of Basra, in some areas going house by house, to restore order and the rule of law.
Soldiers and Policemen alike are working to make sure the criminal elements are kept out of the city by maintaining a highly visible status. In districts across the city, Iraqi Police and Iraqi soldiers are manning checkpoints, driving in patrols or simply standing in plain sight so the population of Basra can see for themselves that security is and the rule of law rules the city.

Basrah is starting to wind down on the clearing. Becoming Build phase. At least one IA Bde has redeployed to homebase. That means that reserves are becoming available for Sadr City. Give it a month...
