Americans resume attacks on al-Fallujah Friday night.
US forces renewed their bombardment of the city of al-Fallujah Friday night, firing barrages on the industrial zone of the city and the al-‘Askari neighborhood. The local correspondent of Mafkarat al-Islam reported that the US forces shelled the areas with mortars. The al-‘Askari neighborhood alone was struck by more than 25 mortar rounds.
The al-Fallujah correspondent of Makfarat al-Islam reported that the Americans also fired some 50 flare shells, lighting up the area over northern al-Fallujah.
Meanwhile, US troops cut the road linking al-Fallujah to ar-Ramadi.
Two Americans, three Resistance fighters killed in battle near ar-Ramadi.
Iraqi Resistance forces fired twelve 82mm mortar rounds at the US base set up in an Iraqi Presidential Palace at Kilometer 5 west of ar-Ramadi at 2pm Friday afternoon. After the barrage, a US patrol of four Humvees rushed to the area and opened fire on the Resistance fighters. A battle ensued in which three Resistance fighters were martyred and their car set on fire.
Two American troops were also killed and their Humvee destroyed by a RPG7 rocket.
The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent reports that the number of Resistance fighters taking part in the attack apparently was small and that they were evidently inexperienced in battling the US troops, their only aim being to fire the barrage at the base.
Resistance blows up Bayji oil pipeline.
Fire broke out in an oil pipeline near Baghdad on Friday morning. The local correspondent of Mafkarat al-Islam reported that at exactly 11am, fire broke out on the Bayji oil pipeline. Flames were still coming from the pipeline at the time he filed his report posted at 6:20pm local time (5:20pm Mecca time).
International market prices for oil have risen to a record $53 per barrel as a result of the Iraqi Resistance’s effective campaign to cut off the theft of Iraqi oil by the US occupation regime.
Battle resumes in al-Latifiyah, south of Baghdad Friday evening.
Fighting resumed in the al-Latifiyah area 25km south of Baghdad on Friday evening. The Makfarat al-Islam correspondent in al-Latifiyah reported that the battle broke out at 6:25pm when US forces attempted to raid several houses in the area. Resistance fighters fought back, however, surprising the Americans with a counter attack in which they used RPG7 automatic weapons and C5K and CBG9 rockets as well as 60mm mortars.
The correspondent wrote that the fighting was still raging when he submitted his report, posted at 10:35pm local time (9:35pm Mecca time) Friday night.
Faced with the defiance of the Resistance, the Americans sent in F-16 fighter bombers to bomb the area, destroying four houses and killing five women, three children, and four men, mostly elderly.
The Resistance, for its part destroyed one US Abrams tank and disabled another. The Resistance also blasted apart four military fuel tank trucks and three Nissan pickup trucks belonging to the puppet Iraqi “national guard” that the Americans had stationed in the road to try to block the advance of Resistance reinforcements into the area. A 2-ton Kia belonging to the puppet “national guard” was also destroyed. The US also suffered casualties, but the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent was unable to provide specific figures.
Resistance captures US woman soldier in al-Latifiyah, after killing eight members of an American patrol.
At about 6:30pm Friday evening, Iraqi Resistance forces attacked a US patrol of three Bradley armored vehicles and three Humveees in al-Musayyib town near al-Latifiyah. The Resistance destroyed one armored vehicle and disabled a Humvee. Eight men aboard the vehicles were killed. The rest of the patrol fled, leaving behind one US servicewoman whom the Resistance captured and took to an unknown destination.
At 8pm Friday night the Resistance issued statements in al-Latifiyah and al-Yusufiyah carrying the picture of the captive servicewoman, and stating that she is an American of Jewish origin.
The correspondent of Mafkarat al-Islam reported Friday night that the Americans had massed more than 3,000 Marines in the area of al-Yusufiyah and al-Latifiyah south of Baghdad. About 1,500 had actually gone into action in the areas.
The massing of troops in the area is aimed at closing a pincer around al-Fallujah, as can be seen by the US practice of setting up command posts wherever they penetrate into the area. The purpose of the tactic being to secure American lines of supply for when they attack al-Fallujah.
The Resistance, for its part, has massed some 800 men according to Mafkarat al-Islam’s sources, and they have prevented the Americans from fully carrying out their aims.
The battles currently raging in the area are among the largest ever since the American occupation of Baghdad in spring of 2003, in terms of the numbers of forces and the extent of their deployment.
Two US intelligence agents and five American troops killed in Mosul ambush.
Resistance forces attacked a black US intelligence GMC vehicle that was being escorted by Humvees and a Bradley armored vehicle in the at-Tudh area in Mosul at 3:30pm Friday afternoon. Two persons aboard the spy car were killed in the attack in which the Resistance fired rocket-propelled grenades, automatic weapons, and BKCs. Two Humvees were also destroyed, killing five Americans aboard them.
Twenty-two helicopter loads of US casualties pour into Baghdad from provinces Friday.
A source employed inside the US occupation headquarters in the Republican Palace in Baghdad, known to the Americans as the “green zone,” told Makfarat al-Islamon Friday that from early morning until 4pm about 22 US Red Cross Black Hawk helicopters landed near the Ibn Sina Hospital. The helicopters were bringing wave after wave of US dead and injured from various places in Iraq to the occupied capital for shipment home or hospital treatment.
Five Americans died in ambush, US troops kill Iraqi family in revenge.
Three powerful Austrian explosive bombs blew up in the at-Tarimiyah area 25km north of Baghdad, destroying a US Humvee and disabling another. Resistance fighters then opened fire on the members of the patrol on the damaged vehicle with their RPG7s, killing five American soldiers, and causing the remainder of the patrol to panic and flee some 500 meters from the scene of the attack. There the Americans began firing indiscriminately on Iraqi civilians, killing one man, his wife, and their three children after setting their Kia ablaze.

At about noon on Friday Iraqi Resistance forces in Ba‘qubah assassinated an officer in the puppet so-called “Iraqi national guard” outside his house in the al-Mal‘ab “Playing field” area in the city.
