BALAD, Iraq – Iraqi Special Operations Forces captured a suspected Special Groups criminal in al-Amarah, a city northeast of Basra, June 5.
The ISOF conducted the operation to capture the suspected criminal who reportedly had weapons caches in and around his home containing Katyushka rockets, AK-47 assault rifles and suppressors for various pistols.
“This operation should illustrate to the citizens in the area that ISOF is willing and able to go after criminals wherever they hide in order to bring peace and security to the Maysan Province,” said Lt. Col. Neil Harper, Multi-National Corps – Iraq spokesman.
