Al-Fallujah.

The most peaceful day in weeks passes Sunday as Resistance retains control of southern al-Fallujah.

In a dispatch posted at 10:40pm Mecca time Sunday night, the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent in al-Fallujah reported that until 9pm local time Sunday night calm had prevailed in the city during the day after the fighting that raged during the night quieted down around dawn.

No US aircraft were observed flying over the city, nor did the American forces bombard any neighborhoods of the city, not from the air, nor by mortar or tank fire as has been a regular occurrence since the offensive on the city began.

The correspondent added that Sunday was probably the calmest of any of the days that the city has enjoyed for more than two weeks.

The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondents in as-Saqlawiyah and al-‘Amiriyah observed the US military formations, and noted that they remained in place and stationary.

The correspondents in their Sunday night reports noted that Resistance fighters outside the city had fired no rockets at the US forces since Sunday morning.

US forces currently occupy positions behind the highway south of al-Fallujah, and the Resistance is in control of the industrial zone and the ash-Shuhada’, al-Jubayl, an-Nazal, and al-‘Askari neighborhoods in the southern and eastern parts of the city. There is no US presence in those areas.

The US forces are present, however, behind the highway east of al-Fallujah, now occupying the positions they formerly held before the US offensive began three weeks ago.

Fierce fighting all through Saturday-Sunday night.

Fighting broke out Saturday night on all approaches to the city of al-Fallujah and lasted until dawn Sunday morning. In a dispatch posted at 1:08pm Sunday afternoon Mecca time, the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent in al-Fallujah reported that after intermittent fighting during the day Saturday, but after 10pm continuous battle erupted that lasted until sunrise.

US aircraft this time did not join in the bombardment of Resistance positions. American forces shelled the city with mortars and tanks, and the Resistance fiercely returned fire, striking the American staff south of al-Fallujah with 15 Grad rockets, after which flames could be seen over seven heavy vehicles. After dawn fighting died down into skirmishes.

In stunning move: Resistance fighters break into al-Fallujah to bring supplies to city’s defenders.

In a qualitatively new development, Iraqi Resistance fighters outside of al-Fallujah broke through the US ring around the city on Saturday afternoon to bring supplies and raise the morale of the defenders of the city.

The correspondent of Mafkarat al-Islam in al-Fallujah reported that a large group of Resistance fighters advanced towards al-Fallujah from al-Azraqiyah, a village west of the city. Crying Allahu Akbar! (God is greatest!) - a call that could be heard in many parts of the city itself - the fighters advanced into the old city of al-Fallujah, then moved to the al-Jawlan neighborhood, then went to the train station, then proceeded to the as-Sakani neighborhood and after that left the city, going on to the north.

The break in and drive through the city lasted just over two hours, beginning at 3:30pm Saturday and ending at 5:45pm. The Resistance fighters who broke through US lines to get into the city brought new types of supplies to the defenders of the city, the nature of which was not disclosed to the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent.

The correspondent wrote that American forces in and around the city fell back before the large-scale Resistance break through. Some of the US troops fell back into the ad-Dubbat neighborhood from the area of the breakthrough, others fell back to the northwest of the al-Jawlan neighborhood.

The fact that the Americans retreated in the face of the attack came as a surprise, and was attributed to the speed of the Resistance breakthrough and the fragility of the US ring around the city. The US only weakly engaged the Resistance fighters in the old city of al-Fallujah and in the al-Jumhuriyah neighborhood in the northwest of the city. It was somewhat stronger, however, in the al-Jawlan neighborhood, but there was no fighting at all in the area of the train station and in the as-Sakani neighborhood.

The operation reflected the exhaustion and weakness that have afflicted the US Marines as a result of the constant operations of the Iraqi Resistance in and around al-Fallujah. Some six days ago Mafkarat al-Islam quoted a Resistance leader as saying that something very important was expected to happen in the Battle of al-Fallujah in the next day or so, and it appears that the breakthrough was this major development, although it was delayed due to the difficult military situation in the city.

Resistance downs US Chinook helicopter with up to 50 US troops aboard over the ash-Shuhada’ neighborhood.

Iraqi Resistance fighters in al-Fallujah shot down a US Chinook helicopter that was carrying a large number of US troops, estimated by some Resistance sources to number 50. Mafkarat al-Islam’s correspondent in al-Fallujah reported that the helicopter was shot down by Resistance fighters who fired a Strela missile at the helicopter over the ash-Shuhada’ neighborhood of southeastern al-Fallujah late Saturday night.

The correspondent added that immediately after the crash of the laden helicopter, Resistance fighters rushed to pound it with numerous anti-personnel RPG7 rockets, making sure that the helicopter was totally destroyed and killing all aboard. No one aboard the vehicle escaped.
