| (KUNA) -- Iraqi Security Forces searched the Fallujah General Hospital today as part of their continuous operations to maintain the security and safety of the citizens of Fallujah, the US army said in a statement on Tuesday. The hospital was searched after intelligence indicated that it was being used as a potential safe haven for insurgents, according to the statement. The Iraqi Security Forces, with the support of Coalition Forces, entered the Fallujah General Hospital to ensure that the facility continues to be a safe place for the people of Fallujah to receive medical treatment. No insurgent activity was uncovered, it said. The hospital staff and patients cooperated with the Iraqi Security Forces and the visit was completed without incident. |
