BAGHDAD, Iraq - Multi-National Division - Baghdad soldiers continue to deny criminals freedom of movement in and around the Adhamiyah and Sadr City districts of Baghdad May 10-11.

At approximately 7:30 a.m. May 10, MND-B soldiers with Company D, 4th Battalion, 64th Armor Regiment, returned precision fire and killed a criminal who attacked them with small-arms fire in Adhamiyah. 

At approximately 10:50 a.m., soldiers from Company C, 1st Combined Arms Battalion, 68th Infantry Regiment, returned precision fire and killed a criminal who attacked them with small-arms fire in Adhamiyah. 

At approximately 4 p.m. May 10, soldiers from Company E, 1-68 CAB, engaged and killed four criminals after a failed explosively formed penetrator attack. The soldiers positively identified the triggerman and his fellow criminals, returned precision fire and killed the four attackers in Sadr City.

At approximately 10:20 p.m. May 10, soldiers from Co. E, 1-68 CAB, who while on a patrol interacting with the local populace, were provided a tip about two criminals emplacing a roadside bomb. The soldiers moved to intercept the bomb emplacers. The soldiers engaged the criminals and killed one. The second fled the scene in Adhamiyah.

At approximately 12:15 a.m. May 11, an MND-B aerial weapons team responded to the site of a roadside bomb attack. The AWT positively identified the two triggermen and engaged the pair with a Hellfire missile. One criminal was killed, their vehicle was destroyed, and the second criminal fled into a surrounding neighborhood in Adhamiyah.  

"Our soldiers, along with the Iraqi Security Forces, continue to meet with the local populace to identify these criminal elements and eliminate the threat they pose," said Lt. Col. Steve Stover, spokesman for MND-B and the 4th Infantry Division. "We will continue to use precision fire to defend the Iraqi people and ourselves against these criminal elements."
