| Another press release from CentCom which will probably not make it into your MSM Iraq news roundup. NPs SEIZE IEDs IN ALl KUR MOSQUE BAGHDAD – Iraqi National Police from 3rd Battalion, 5th Brigade, 2nd National Police Division, seized weapons and munitions when they searched the Al Kur Mosque and nearby houses Thursday in Mansour, a muhalla in western Baghdad. Upon entering the mosque, the policemen discovered a completed improvised-explosive device, an IED that was not yet complete, components for an armor piercing IED, three sets of body armor and an AK-47. The search expanded to houses around the mosque; when residents saw the NPs coming, they fled. The policemen discovered Iraqi Police uniform items, pictures of military activities, a pistol and loose 7.62mm ammunition in a house directly adjacent to the mosque. In another nearby house, they discovered a police scanner that was monitoring the NPs while they were searching the mosque. |
