The following headline news are from an internet website, called Islam Memo (http://www.islammemo.cc/), that reports from Iraqi cities. Some US TV stations mentioned that there were 16 US soldiers who were killed in various parts of Iraq on Tuesday. There are no reports yet about US and Iraqi casualties in Falluja. Al-Jazeerah does not have the resources to verify the following news from US media units.
US Forces enter 4 Falluja neighborhoods, Jolan, Mu'alimin, Jighifi, and Shurta, using the same tactics used in occupying Samarra. Air raids were followed by spreading snipers on house roofs and over mosques, then tanks advanced, which left little chance for the resistance to maneuver.
Iraqi Resistance Stop US Advance in Northern Falluja and no advance in the south because of resistance there. More fighting has occurred at Al-Mu'alimin neighborhood.
US forces penetrated northern Falluja by entering between Mu'alimin and Jighifi neighborhoods. US forces used weapons that were used first in the US attack on the Baghdad airport at the beginning of the war in 2003.
8 US soldiers and 2 Iraqi resistance fighters killed and personnel carrier and two Hummer vehicles destroyed in Suwaira, south of Baghdad.
200,000 US bombs dropped on Falluja so far. This included carpet and cluster bombs. This resulted in a big number of injuries but there are no ambulances to carry them. There are no doctors and the hospitals were either bombed or in the hands in the US forces. Dr. Muhammed Isma'il of Al-Falluja General Hospital has appealed to Iraqi doctors from all over the country to go to Falluja to treat the wounded.
Dr. Isma'il mentioned that the US forces arrested doctors and medics of the hospitals, which led to one of the nurses to do a surgery to a child to get shrapnels out of his body.
Four US soldiers killed and a hummer vehicle and a truck were destroyed at Al-Taji, north of Baghdad. About 10:00 O'clock local time, a US convoy was attacked near the Tigress River, in the Hore El-Basha area. A roadside bomb exploded then RPG rockets were launched, which resulted in the killing of four US soldiers and the truck driver who was a Jordanian or a Syrian.
Three US soldiers were killed when their convoy was attacked by RPG7 rockets on Tuesday morning at Al-Zahraniya area, south of Baghdad. Their Hummer vehicle was destroyed in the attack.
A US surveillance plane was downed at Al-Rahmaniya area of Karkh in Baghdad about 80 Monday morning. Iraqis downed it using BCK machine guns.
Four US marines Killed at Al-Ghazaliya, south of Baghdad at about 80 local morning time. A roadside bomb destroyed a US hummer military vehicle killing the four marines and injuring two others.
