Iraq

Iraqi Special Forces conducted a raid in Sadr City, searching for a “kidnapping cell.”. US and British troops are hunting for the captured American and Austrian security contractors in the southern Iraqi city of Safwan. The Iraq Survey group met with Syria’s foreign minister twice to discuss security in Iraq. The 15th MEU is now in Kuwait.
