Multi-National Corps – Iraq PAO

BAGHDAD – Iraqi Army forces conducted an early-morning operation on April 4 in
Baghdad, capturing 10 suspects believed to be involved in a major terrorist cell.

With coalition advisers present for support, Iraqi forces simultaneously raided
several residences in the Adhamiyah neighborhood of Baghdad and captured their
primary targets including the leader of the cell.

Coalition and Iraqi Forces encountered enemy-fire upon entry into one of the
structures. Well aimed fire allowed Iraqi Security forces to kill one insurgent and wound
another during the exchange.

The primary targets of this operation are alleged to be responsible for attacks on
Coalition and Iraqi Forces, as well as Iraqi civilians. The suspects were also linked to
manufacturing and storing vehicle borne improvised explosive devices in a separate
facility.

No Iraqi or coalition forces were injured during this operation.
