| THI-QAR / Aswat al-Iraq: A U.S. vehicle patrol was damaged on Monday by a bomb blast in Thi-Qar province, according to a security source. “A U.S. vehicle was damaged as an Explosively Formed Penetrator (EFP) was remotely detonated targeting a U.S. motorcade on the road linking between al-Masouriya region and Imam Ali airbase, southern Nassiriya,” the source, who asked for anonymity, told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. “The road was closed for two hours to defuse two more EFP bombs at the same place,” he added. Nassiriya, the capital of Thi-Qar, is 380 km south of Baghdad. |
