And get this:
Elsewhere, Iraqi security forces conducted an air assault raid early on July 1 in northern Babil Province, capturing 12 insurgents, including seven cell members from a local terrorist network.
Forces from the Hillah Special Weapons and Tactics unit, or SWAT, assisted by coalition force advisers, raided an objective northwest of Sayafiyah and captured the seven terrorists. All seven of these individuals had warrants issued for their arrest by the Iraqi Ministry of Interior, officials said. Five other individuals were also detained during the operation, and the SWAT team seized two AK-47 assault rifles and two Russian made SKS carbine rifles.
