Coalition operations hit bombing networks (Baghdad)
BAGHDAD – Coalition forces detained eight suspected terrorists in central and northern Iraq Friday while targeting operatives involved in al-Qaeda in Iraq bombing networks.
Coalition forces in Baghdad captured a wanted man with suspected ties to several AQI networks, including foreign terrorist facilitation and bombing cells. He is also believed to associate with longtime AQI leaders, some of whom were detained in 2006.
Using information from an operation Aug. 9, Coalition forces detained six suspected terrorists in Mosul, including a wanted man. The wanted man is allegedly associated with financial support for terrorists in the city.
In Bayji, about 160 kilometers south of Mosul, Coalition forces detained one suspected terrorist while targeting members of a bombing cell known for attacking first responders.
