Two hundred and nineteen suspected insurgents were detained in northern Babil province during an operation conducted recently by Iraqi Security Forces and U.S. Soldiers. The operation began June 25th.
Operation Strategic Separation (al Azil al Sitrateegi) was conducted to deny anti-coalition forces freedom of movement and safe havens throughout Northern Babil province. Iraqi forces focused on the cities of Jurf as Sakhr, Haswah, Diyarah, Bahbahani, and Musayyib throughout the operation. As many as 350 Iraqi soldiers and police officers were involved in the operation.
"The Iraqi Security forces demonstrated their abilities and professionalism throughout the conduct of this operation," said Army Lt. Col. Trent Kelly, 155th BCT ISF coordinator. "The ISF continue to make great strides in their training and are well on their way to becoming a stand-alone force fully capable of combating the insurgency."
The 155th BCT is a U.S. Army unit assigned to II Marine Expeditionary Force (Fwd) in support of Operation Iraqi Freedom.
