BAQOUBA, Iraq – Coalition Forces intercepted an ambulance carrying seven suspected al-Qaida operatives attempting to circumvent security elements operating in Baqouba, June 19. Local doctors called the Diyala Provincial Joint Coordination Center and reported five children injured near Khatoon, a neighborhood in southwest Baqouba, Iraq. The PJCC dispatched an ambulance to that location.When Coalition soldiers checked the ambulance they found a driver and six men, who appeared to be in their 20s and 30s, two of which were injured, thankfully despite many terror cells that use children as shields there were no children in the ambulance. All six men were detained.
Later, the ambulance was seen heading north on a road northwest of New Baqouba when it bypassed the road that led to the hospital.
The ambulance was stopped by alert Soldiers from 3rd Stryker Brigade Combat Team, 2nd Infantry Division, from Fort Lewis, Wash., who are conducting missions in the area as part of Operation Arrowhead Ripper.
Will we read about this in the Western Media? I highly doubt it and if we do hear about it, somehow US forces will be to blame for hindering the transport of wounded civilians...armed civilians.
