Saturday, 6 August 2005.
· Fighting continues as Americans bomb residential neighborhoods in al-Hadithah.
· US blows up Barwanah Bridge after failing to take it in ground assaults.
· American Marines surround all 73 mosques in ar-Ramadi, then start campaign of ransacking and ripping up copies of the Qur’an. Reporter submits photo.
· Deadly Resistance attacks bludgeon US forces in Babil Province south of Baghdad.
Al-Anbar Province.
Al-Hadithah.
Savage fighting continues in and around al-Hadithah Saturday morning. Resistance brings down US helicopter, citizens kill crew. Americans fall back from part of southern neighborhood under Resistance blows. At least five US troops reported killed.
Fierce fighting continued between the Iraqi Resistance and US and puppet troops in al-Hadithah early Saturday. Quds Press reported that more than 1,000 US and puppet troops were taking part in an offensive that the Americans dubbed “quick strike” – a name not entirely appropriate as the combat proved far from quick for the Americans.
In a dispatch posted at 8:50am Mecca time Saturday morning, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that a short while earlier Iraqi Resistance forces shot down a US Apache helicopter over the city, now under American blockade and assault.
The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent reported that witnesses said they saw the aircraft in flames plunge to earth. Local residents killed the crew after the aircraft hit the ground. American fighter aircraft were, at the time of writing, swarming in the skies above the crash site at extremely low altitude.
The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent at the northern boundaries of the city, meanwhile, reported that US occupation troops had fired four rockets into the Air Quality Department, razing the building to the ground. The correspondent confirmed that no one was killed in that attack. Quds Press added that the US had also bombed the Electricity and Water Departments as well as various government buildings.
At the same time, there were reports from the al-‘Askari neighborhood in the south of al-Hadithah that the Resistance had struck heavy blows at US forces in that area, forcing them to withdraw from a small portion of the neighborhood.
Quds Press reported sources close to the Iraqi Resistance as saying that six US vehicles had been totally burned in the continuing battles on the outskirts of al-Hadithah. The sources said that five US soldiers had been killed. Fires were still visible, burning in numerous American military vehicles at the northern entrance to the city after they had been hit in an Iraqi Resistance rocket barrage.
