BAGHDAD, OCT. 13. Iraq's interim Prime Minister, Iyad Allawi, on Wednesday threatened military action against the main militant stronghold of Fallujah if residents don't hand over the Jordanian terror mastermind Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Fallujah, in Iraq's Sunni Muslim heartland, is believed to be a stronghold of Al-Zarqawi's feared Tawhid and Jihad group, which has kidnapped and beheaded numerous foreigners. ``If they do not turn in Zarqawi and his group, we will carry out operations in Fallujah,'' Mr. Allawi told a meeting of the interim National Council on Wednesday.
Four U.S. soldiers killed
Roadside bombings killed four American soldiers in Baghdad, the U.S. command said on Wednesday. Also on Wednesday, U.S. troops swept into the Sunni stronghold of Ramadi and joined Iraqi police and National Guardsmen in raids in Baqouba after a day of fierce clashes in militant enclaves. In Ramadi, U.S. troops sealed off streets and searched buildings after days of clashes. — AP
