Iraq - Air strike near Ramadi kills terrorists:video

Note the link to the video at the top of this report.

BAGHDAD — An air strike near Ramadi on Saturday killed six terrorists who had fired mortars at civilians there.

Maj. Gen. William B. Caldwell IV, Multi-National Force – Iraq senior spokesman, said that Coalition aircraft saw the terrorists loading a mortar tube into a white sedan near a known terrorist safe house.

The Coalition aircraft continued to watch as the terrorists dug up munitions from a weapons cache and then fired four mortars at Iraqi civilians Saturday morning. The men then drove the vehicle to another secluded area.

Coalition forces, determining that striking the terrorists at this location would prevent innocent casualties, dropped a guided bomb from the aircraft onto the vehicle, killing all six terrorists.
