MUQDADIYA, Iraq – Soldiers from the 5th Iraqi Army Division, partnered with Coalition force members from the 3rd Brigade Combat Team, 1st Cavalry Division, targeted specific terrorist cells in the Jazeera neighborhood of Muqdadiya, Iraq, Thursday as part of an ongoing operation.
The 3rd Brigade, 5th Iraqi Army, together with Soldiers from 6-9 Armored Reconnaissance Squadron, detained two suspected terrorists and discovered more than 10 weapons caches during the operation.
“The discovery of the weapons caches and the elimination of terrorist cells is credible evidence to the progress of the 5th Iraqi Army Division,” said Col. David W. Sutherland, senior U.S. Army officer in the Diyala province and commander of 3-1 Cav. “As we continue to discover these caches, a significant impact is made on the enemy’s ability to target the security forces and the people of Diyala.”
