AFP. 23 January 2002. US warplanes attack anti-aircraft artillery site in southern Iraq: US military. WASHINGTON -- US warplanes attacked an anti-aircraft artillery site in southern Iraq Tuesday for the second time this week, responding to "hostile Iraqi threats" against coalition aircraft patrolling a no-fly zone, US military officials said. A spokesman for the US Central Command said the aircraft used precision guided weapons to attack the anti-aircraft artillery site near Tallil, 270 kilometers (170 miles) southeast of Baghdad. An anti-aircraft artillery site near the same location was struck by US warplanes on Monday, the first US air strikes in southern Iraq since November 27. The spokesman would not say, however, whether the strike was in response to a buildup of Iraqi air defenses in the south or to a particularly attack. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
