Seven terrorists killed

Coalition forces killed seven terrorists and detained eight suspected terrorists during operations Thursday [September 20 2007] targeting al-Qaeda in Iraq leaders in the central part of the country.

Coalition forces targeted a senior leader of al-Qaeda in Iraq during an operation in Mahmudiyah in continued efforts to boost security in the southern belt around Baghdad. After several hours of monitoring a known terrorist group, ground forces returned to the area where terrorists had engaged them with small arms fire during previous operations. As Coalition forces arrived at the target area, they identified hostile intent from the group of men they were monitoring and called for close air support. Seven terrorists were killed and three suspected terrorists were detained on the scene.

In Samarra, Coalition forces captured three individuals believed to be closely tied to senior leaders of al-Qaeda in Iraq and two additional suspected terrorists.

“Terrorists cannot hide from our operations against their leadership network,” said Maj. Winfield Danielson, MNF-I spokesman. “Iraqi and Coalition security forces will ensure al-Qaeda in Iraq does not come between the Iraqi people and the future they choose for their country.”
