Al-Anbar Province.
Al-Fallujah.
Iraqi Resistance forces reportedly down US helicopter with 20 Marines aboard on their way home from Iraq.
Iraqi Resistance forces shot down a huge US Chinook helicopter over ‘Amiriyat al-Fallujah, a southern suburb of the city of al-Fallujah, located some 60km west of Baghdad on Wednesday.
The al-Fallujah correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported a source in the Iraqi puppet army as saying that Resistance fighters armed with a SAM7 surface-to-air missile struck the helicopter as it was on its way back to one of the US bases in Baghdad with 20 US Marines aboard. The Marines were on their way back to the United States after completing their tour of duty in occupied Iraq, the source said.
Witnesses in ‘Amiriyat al-Fallujah told the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent that US occupation forces continued searching in date palm groves in the area and along the banks of the Euphrates River for a long time, hunting for wreckage of the helicopter and for bodies, amidst an unprecedented blackout of information on the crash in the media in the area.
Resistance bombards US base in agricultural area east of al-Fallujah.
In a dispatch posted at 11:30am Mecca time Wednesday morning, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that a short while earlier Iraqi Resistance forces had fired seven heavy 120mm mortar rounds into various parts of the US base in the agricultural area east of al-Fallujah (which is located some 50km west of Baghdad).
A source in the Iraqi puppet army told the correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam in al-Fallujah that the barrage inflicted no casualties. Residents of al-Fallujah who witnessed the attack, however, said they saw thick clouds of smoke rising over the base as US Apache helicopters hovered overhead. Large numbers of US helicopters were still to be seen over the stricken base at the time the correspondent filed his report.
Ar-Ramadi.
Four US troops reported killed in Resistance bombing at noon Wednesday.
An Iraqi Resistance roadside bomb exploded by a US patrol near ar-Ramadi at 12 noon local time Wednesday.
Mafkarat al-Islam reported a source in the puppet “Iraqi Installation Protection Forces” as saying that four Americans were killed and a fifth severely wounded in the bombing which took place on the road leading to the glass and ceramics works to the west of ar-Ramadi.
The dead and wounded Americans were taken in US armored vehicles to the American al-Warrar base which is also located to the west of ar-Ramadi.
In a broadcast over the US military’s propaganda station “Radio al-Hurriyah” that is beamed at residents of the city, the American occupation forces acknowledged that an attack had taken place on a patrol but offered no further details.
“Unprecedented” Iraqi Resistance attacks predicted; US, Iraqi puppet army to send 5,000 more troops to al-Anbar Province.
A spokesman for the Iraqi puppet army announced on Wednesday that 5,000 additional soldiers will be sent to the western Iraqi province of al-Anbar to reinforce the US and Iraqi puppet forces already in the area.
The spokesman said that 750 US Marines headed to ar-Ramadi, the provincial capital some 110km west of Baghdad, late on Tuesday.
The spokesman told Mafkarat al-Islam’s correspondent that based on their intelligence the Americans and the puppet regime expect unprecedented Iraqi Resistance attacks in the coming period, particularly as the Islamic hold month of fasting, Ramadan, is approaching ミ a time considered auspicious for martyrdom. Ramadan is to begin in the first week of October this year.
The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent in Abu Ghurayb (some 30km west of Baghdad) noted that the road between Baghdad and ar-Ramadi is already punctuated by more than nine checkpoint inspection areas and at the time of writing was expected to be closed altogether in a few hours.
Abu Ghurayb.
Resistance fighters gun down Abu Ghurayb judge.
Iraqi Resistance fighters attacked and killed the President of the Criminal Court of Abu Ghurayb early Wednesday morning.
Mafkarat al-Islam reported a source in the Iraqi puppet army as saying that Iraqi Resistance fighters attacked the motorcade of Judge Ahmad Husayn on the main street in Abu Ghurayb as it was leaving the judge’s home for work at 8am local time Wednesday morning. Killed in the attack were the judge, his driver and three of his companions.
Baghdad.
Death toll of 1,000 feared in stampede of panicked Shi‘i pilgrims on crowded bridge in Baghdad. Disaster compounded by closure of most roads in the area by US forces, increasing overcrowding, seriously delaying arrival of medical help.
At least 841 were confirmed dead and 323 others injured Wednesday afternoon as a result of a stampede on the al-A’immah Bridge in Baghdad, in which, it was reported, part of the bridge collapsed.
A dispatch posted on the website of al-Jazeera satellite TV at 15:50GMT Wednesday evening, quoted the “Ministry of Health” in the US-installed Iraqi regime in Baghdad as saying that the death toll was likely to top 1,000.
Earlier, in a dispatch posted at 2:20pm Mecca time Wednesday afternoon, the correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported a brigadier general in the Iraqi puppet army as saying that the total number of those killed in the stampede on the bridge might exceed 1,000 persons, because of the severity of the injuries suffered by many of the survivors.
The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent said that most of the dead had been pushed off the bridge and into the Tigris River where they drowned, according to the general.
The general’s estimate was backed up by the Deputy Director of Medical City Hospital in Baghdad who said that the sun would not set Wednesday except on more than 1,000 dead pilgrims, Mafkarat al-Islam noted.
Media reports said that the pilgrims were in a procession heading to the al-Kazimayn Mosque on the right bank of the Tigris when rumors of a bomb ミ that turned out to be unfounded ミ produced a deadly stampede.
Crowded conditions aggravated by US military road closures. . .
A statement issued by the Association of Muslim Scholars of Iraq, the highest Sunni Muslim religious authority in the country, said that for more than three days caravans of Iraqi pilgrims had been pouring in from all over Iraq to visit the tomb of the 8th-Century Shi‘i Imam Musa ibn Ja‘far on the occasion of the anniversary of his death.
Witnesses quoted in the statement said that there was great overcrowding and pushing as pilgrims from the provinces jammed in, particularly on the al-A’immah bridge that links the al-A‘zamiyah district of Baghdad with the al-Kazimiyah district where the tomb is located. The witnesses said that there was a panic in which many fell and were trampled. Older people were quickly killed in the stampede.
The witnesses said that the disaster was compounded by the fact that “nearly all of the roads” in the area had been closed or obstructed by concrete barricades put up by the US occupation forces, aggravating the overcrowding and preventing medical help from getting to the victims quickly.
“Minister of Transport” in US-backed regime blames American forces for deaths. . .
Those views of witnesses were backed up when the “Minister of Transport” in the puppet government in Baghdad, Salam al-Maliki, told a press conference that the “multi-national forces bear most of the blame for the catastrophe because they prevented the arrival of medical assistance to the area where the disaster took place.”
Al-Maliki said that the US forces deployed in the area of the catastrophe had closed roads and prevented any cars other than their own vehicles from entering their areas. He said that they prevented ambulances and medical teams of divers and first aid providers from reaching the scene of the disaster in time.
Al-Maliki accused the American occupation forces of being so afraid of possible attacks on themselves at the time of the incident that they had no concern for the lives of Iraqis, Mafkarat al-Islam reported.
Witnesses, victims say police mistake caused panic . . .
In a dispatch posted at 3pm Mecca time Wednesday afternoon, the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent in al-Kazimiyah reported that a group of witnesses there said that the immediate cause of the panic that led to the disaster was an unintentional mistake made by puppet policemen from the al-Kazimiyah police station who were deployed at the approach to the bridge.
Ahmad Hassun, one of those injured in the disaster, told Mafkarat al-Islam that the reason for the panic and stampede was that the people on the bridge were responding to the police who were trying to get them to move with greater speed so as to allow the people jamming the street to get on to the bridge more quickly.
Hassun said that the police were shouting things like, “Brothers, hurry up. There are car bombs. There are terrorists. Don’t bunch up. Hurry on. Keep moving.” But the crowds took that talk to be an actual warning of something about to happen and started to push and jump into the river. Hassun said he was hurt when he fell to the ground and was trampled by other people.
Another witness who was at the scene when the disaster occurred told Mafkarat al-Islam that after the panic started, the police themselves panicked and started shouting, “Brothers! False alarm! False alarm! There’s nothing wrong!” But the people didn’t trust the police and thought they were just trying to stay in control so they paid no attention to them.
The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent reported that local residents of the area around the bridge agreed with the witnesses that there had been no armed attacks in the area, as some sources claimed, and that the whole disaster was due to an unintentional mistake by the police.
Twenty minutes after Mafkarat al-Islam reported those remarks, a source in the puppet government’s “Interior Ministry” was quoted as saying that the “Ministry” had arrested the officers and men of the police detachment that had been on duty at the approach to the bridge in order to investigate their role in sparking the incident, Mafkarat al-Islam reported.
Hundreds of Sunni Iraqis rush to aid Shi‘i victims . . .
The witnesses who spoke to the Association of Muslim Scholars said that the people from the predominantly Sunni al-A‘zamiyah district rushed to the aid of the victims and provided whatever help they could.
Many donated blood. According to a Mafkarat al-Islam dispatch posted at 2:50pm Mecca time Wednesday afternoon, hundreds of Sunnis from al-A‘zamiyah had flocked to al-Yarmuk General Hospital in central Baghdad to donate blood for the victims of the bridge disaster in the facility. The correspondent in the Baghdad district of al-Karakh reported that Sunni religious leaders and Sunni tribal notables had taken the lead in the emergency effort to donate blood.
Sunni residents of the area where the disaster took place, hastened to take part in the recovery of the injured and the dead from the Tigris River, carrying them to ambulances. In that effort as well, Sunni religious leaders played a prominent role.
Sadr spokesman: no such disasters when Sadr Movment organized events . . .
Meanwhile, al-Jazeera satellite TV reported ‘Abbas ar-Rabi‘i, the political representative of Shi‘i Muslim religious leader Muqtada as-Sadr, as pointing out that this year the US occupation authorities had appointed the people who organized the activities marking the religious occasion and that it was on their watch that the catastrophe occurred. On earlier occasions, when the as-Sadr movement had charge of the event, nothing of the sort ever took place.
Later in the afternoon Muqtada as-Sadr himself issued a statement in an-Najaf in which he blamed the US occupation and its puppet government in Baghdad for what he called the “Baghdad Massacre” and demanded that an investigation into the incident be opened.
Iraqi Journalists Union refutes claims by pro-occupation “Interior Minister” that no journalists are being arrested.
The “Interior Minister” in the US-installed Iraqi regime in Baghdad has issued a statement denying reports by Mafkarat al-Islam that his ministry has begun to arrest journalists who work for organizations that refer to the Iraqi Resistance forces as “Resistance fighters” rather than “insurgents” or “terrorists.” The statement said that claims that claims that journalists are being arrested or pursued are “without foundation,” according to a report carried by Mafkarat al-Islam on Wednesday.
“We do not combat journalists, pursue or arrest them ever,” said Baqir Jabr Sulagh, the “Interior Minister” in the Iraqi puppet regime and also prominent leader in the Badr Brigades Shi‘i sectarian organization ミ the armed wing of the Supreme Council for the Islamic Revolution in Iraq (SCIRI) ミ who entered Iraq together with US invasion troops in spring 2003.
The Iraqi Journalists Union, however, rejected the “Minister’s” statement saying that more than 60 journalists are currently under arrest and in the jails run by the “Interior Ministry.” Among the journalists now behind bars are a correspondent for al-Jazeera satellite TV and another working for the ar-Rafidayn Iraqi TV station. Some journalists have been jailed and then disappeared, with nothing more known of them.
In its press statement, read out by as-Sayyid Rashid al-Hayyali in a hall of al-Mustansiriyah University in Baghdad, the Iraqi Journalists Union declared that “what Mafkarat al-Islam had reported was precisely true and not mistaken as the Minister claimed. Journalists on the ground know this, as they are exposed to the reality of being pursued, restricted, and arrested. Everyone know that but no one has dared to say it except Mafkarat al-Islam.”
Iraqi “Interior Ministry” puppet forces arrested the journalist Muhammad ‘Abd al-Karim, a correspondent for the Sunni newspaper Dar as-Salam about two weeks ago. Also in prison are Hasan Hammud of al-Kalimah newspaper published in al-Anbar Province and Jamal Khalil, the editor of the newspaper run by the Shi‘i Muslim religious leader Muqtada as-Sadr.
US offered US$5 million to each Sunni member of “constitutional committee” to sign the draft.
The Saudi daily newspaper al-Watan reported on Tuesday that a source close to the so-constitutional drafting committee who is a Sunni had disclosed that the United States had offered a reward of US$5 million to each Sunni member of the committee if he or she would sign the draft. Since there are 15 Sunni members of the committee, that would amount to a total of $75 million.
The source told al-Watan that the Sunni members of the committee had rejected the American offer and rejected the draft “constitution,” according to which Iraq is to be split into three “federated” regions along ethnic and sectarian lines.
Diyala Province.
Ba‘qubah.
Four US troops reported killed in bombing Wednesday afternoon.
An Iraqi Resistance bomb exploded in Ba‘qubah at about 4pm local time Wednesday afternoon.
The Ba‘qubah correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported witnesses as saying that a bomb exploded by a joint patrol of US troops and Iraqi puppet police in the industrial zone of the city. The blast destroyed one American Humvee and one pickup belonging to the puppet police. Four US troops and two Iraqi puppet policemen were killed in the explosion, the witnesses reported.
Salah ad-Din Province.
Samarra’.
Resistance bomb leaves a reported four US troops dead near Samarra’ Wednesday morning.
An Iraqi Resistance bomb exploded by a US patrol northeast of the city of Samarra’ at 8:30am local time Wednesday morning.
A source in the Iraqi puppet army told the Samarra’ correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam that a bomb that was planted by the side of the road blew up as a patrol of three armored Humvees passed by, destroying one of the vehicles and killing four soldiers aboard and wounding a fifth. The source said that the Americans belonged to the 82nd Marne Division.
The main road on which the bomb exploded was completely closed for two hours after the attack, during which time houses and shops in the area were searched. No sign of the Resistance attackers was found.
Ninwa Province.
Mosul.
Four US troops, Asian translator reported killed in early afternoon car bomb attack.
An Iraqi Resistance martyrdom fighter drove an explosives-packed car into a US patrol in the al-Ghabat area of the northern Iraqi city of Mosul at 2pm local time Wednesday afternoon.
The Mosul correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported witnesses as saying that as the US patrol was passing by, an Iraqi Resistance fighter drove a Nissan sedan into the column. The blast destroyed a US Humvee and killed four American troops and their Asia translator. After the attack, US forces encircled the area and prevented anyone approaching.
