Six Huge Explosions Rock
US Iraq Base After
Attack
8-12-3
- BAGHDAD (AFP) -- Six huge
explosions rocked a US military base west of Baghdad overnight as
mysterious assailants fired on the compound, an eyewitness said.
-
- Faras Mustafa, 34, said he saw smoke rising from the
base, in Ramadi, 100km from Baghdad, after the blasts.
-
- There was no immediate comment from the US army, but
earlier, Colonel Guy Shields, the coalition's top military spokesman,
said the base in Ramadi had come under repeated mortar attack the
previous few nights.
-
- The town is considered a stronghold of sympathisers of
Saddam Hussein's regime, who hailed from the same Sunni Muslim
community, now embattled in the post-war Iraq era as the country's
Shi'ite majority asserts its will.
