The Coalition Force defeats complex attack

MULTINATIONAL FORCE – WEST PAO

CAMP FALLUJAH, Iraq
– The Coalition Force successfully defeated a complex insurgent small arms fire attack in Ramadi Oct. 16, killing three insurgents.  

Insurgents attacked three different Coalition locations from several buildings at the same time with small-arms fire.  In response to the attack, the Coalition Force established the origin of the gunfire and returned fire with small-arms and machine-gun fire.  When the enemy’s fire did not cease, the Coalition Force used increasing levels of force, to include tank main gun rounds followed by an air-delivered missile.

There are no reports of civilian casualties.  Three insurgents were confirmed killed as a result of the attack.  No Coalition Force Soldiers were injured during the attack.
