Air Strike Destroys Terrorist Bunker

Strike Eagles Go Hunting... Bag Their Limit (As Usual)

Coalition forces destroyed a terrorist facility Wednesday, and in an operation Tuesday, U.S. soldiers detained a suspected terrorist, Multinational Force Iraq officials reported.

In a joint effort, coalition forces conducted a precision air strike against a known terrorist facility in southern Baghdad Wednesday, using four U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagles, officials said.

Terrorists were using a former Iraqi regime munitions storage bunker in a large, uninhabited weapons-storage complex in the Babil province to acquire and transport bomb-making munitions to be used in attacks.

The aircraft conducted a clearing pass while Multinational Division Baghdad helicopters scanned for any civilians in the area in a deliberate effort to ensure no collateral damage. The sorties made multiple passes to ensure the complete destruction of the bunker.

E-I-C Note: Nice shooting, folks... keep up the good work.
