OPERATIONAL INFORMATION 05.04.2003 [ 13:57 ] von irakwar.ru
-->hier die automatische übersetzung aus dem russischen, etwas holprig aber man kann in groben zügen erkennen worum's geht:
Situation at the American- Iraqi front is characterized by gradual reduction in the offensive activity of Americans.After the march/flight/marsh of the tank units of 3-1 mechanized division in Baghdad, and the output/yield of forward subunits to the city from the south and the southwest, is noted the beginning of works on the engineering equipment of positions, what does testify, from one side - about the end of the sequential stage of campaign, and with another?on the loss by the American parts of offensive potential and need for leisure and regrouping.It is assumed that into the next two days the American command by the local impacts/shocks will try to improve and to enlarge its positions on the southern and especially southwestern approaches to Baghdad (overlap by highway Baghdad?Samarra) will begin to pull fresh forces from Kuwait.As we were assumed, during today's night the Americans produced the transfer of subdivisions 101 AMD to aid by 1-1 to mechanized brigade, which took yesterday in the morning the airport im. the Hussein.On the whole were here moved about 80 impact and military transport helicopters and to 500 landing force members.But to seriously strengthen brigade by heavy technology it was impossible because of the fact that iraktsy began to deliver powerful artillery impacts/shocks on routes of advance and unrolled on the roads mobile fire groups.
After reports about the loss en route of the advancement of 3 tanks and 5 BTR American command was forced to stop the transfer of reinforcements on the earth/ground.The yesterday's estimations/evaluations of grouping, which was concentrated here, proved to be overstated.It was refined after the analysis of radio traffic and reports of American commanders, that in the international airport is located only the part of forces 1-1 of brigade to two intensive battalions with the support of self-propelled artillery battalion by total number to 3 thousand soldiers and officers, to 60 tanks and about 20 instruments.
One additional intensified by artillery battalion cut highway Baghdad- amman and are engaged themselves positions on the crossroads south of airport in Abu-Garayb settlement.Almost entire today's night the soldiers of 1-1 mechanized brigade conducted in the suits of antigas defense, in the expectation of application by iraktsami of the?netraditsionnogo weapon?,furthermore the positions of Americans underwent a constant artillery and machine-gun firing.
The command of brigade reports about maximum izmotannosti of its soldiers and it constantly inquires reinforcements.On the whole in the yesterday's twenty-four hours in this region it was lost to 10 units of bronetekhniki, among which the minimum of 4 tanks.It is killed to 9 people, injured about 20, even as the minimum of 25 people are considered it disappeared to bezvesti.Until now is not explained fate of one of the patrol groups, which so did not arrive in the airport.It is assumed that it either - moved aside the khan -Azada and there was taken up defense or - it fell into the ambush and it was destroyed.Its searches now are conducted.The losses of iraktsev in this region composed to 40 people by those killed, about 200 prisoners (into number of whom were carried the operating personnel of airport), 4 instruments and 3 tanks.Now the reconnaissance detachments of Americans by local onslaughts to the side of Iraqi positions attempt to reveal the defense of the outskirts of city.
Simultaneously the parts of marines move with this from the southeast to Baghdad, whose forward subunits left to the outskirts of region ale -Djisir and attempted to gathering to master the bridge through the inflow of the Tigris Diyala river, but they were met by fire/light and they stopped.In this case yesterday in the morning was displaced the commander of the 1st expeditionary detachment (brigade) of marines Colonel Dzho Doudi.How it was revealed, Colonel was displaced??za extreme indecision and the loss of initiative with the assault N -Nasirii??The command of grouping in catarrh found in face of Colonel the justification for its military failures under this city.Colonel in the fact that, attempting to avoid losses, it in the course almost three days did not enter into city and reducing resistance of iraktsev by the fire/light of artillery and by air strikes.
As a result the command was forced to additionally move here 15 detachment of Colonel Thomas Uoldkhauser, for whom it was necessary in the course also almost six days to storm crossings/passages, after losing in this case about its 20 soldiers killed, to 130 by injured and 4 disappeared to bezvesti.1-1 expeditionary detachment of those killed under the N -Nasirie1 did not have, but 3 marines did perish, as is said in the report?po of carelessness?and about 20 people obtained injuries. Despite the fact that for marines was nevertheless possible to take one of the bridges in the South outskirts N -Nasirii, the crossing/passage through Yefrat in this region, until now, was conjugated/combined with the large risk.Combat in the city continue.
American command is forced to this day to hold on the cover of crossing/passage that intensified by tanks and artillery the company of landing force members with total number to 400 soldiers and officers.Each installation through the bridge of columns is encountered by the fire/light of iraktsev from the left shore and for the protection of their troops the landing force members are forced to set a smoke screen and to conduct sustained fire according to the positions of iraktsev.Combat in the city continues to conduct the brigade group of 101 AMD, but the resistance of iraktsev cannot be broken.In the twenty-four hours it was here lost 3 people by injured, 1 soldier disappeared to bezvesti.
In the N -Nadjefe, after three days of firing and bombardments the landing force members 101-1 AMD could to the kilometer move to the center of city and now conduct combat in the region of urban market.It communicates about 2 killed here landing force members and 4 injured.The impact/shock of grenade discharger destroyed 1 BTR.In also the time did enter the information about the fact that in the course of past night the large part of the garrison of city (to 3 thousand soldiers of the division RG of?Medina?and YSHCHMD) left it and on the automobiles left to the side Of kerbely.In the city remained only the militiamen, who covered the withdrawal/departure basic forces and resistance is continued.
By failure were finished all attempts of the American landing force members to move into the city ale -Xindi4.After one of BTR of foremost group was hit, and on the column were released more than 20 grenades from RPG, landing force members fell back to initial positions.2 soldiers were injured and evacuated into the rear American reconnaissance it considers that in the city is defended not more than the battalion of iraktsev, but it is impossible to break their resistance thus far.Siege and assault of city continue already the eighth day. The ale, does not succeed in for Americans taking left-bank part.
Subdivisions 82 VDD do thus far retain only the small of?koridor?- the road through the outskirts ale -Xilly with the bridge through Yefrat.In the city continuous skirmishes go.In the twenty-four hours of the loss of troops of coalition in this region 1 persons composed that killed and 4 are injured. Accurately the same of?koridor?hold marines in the city ale -Kut.But are data those making it possible to assume that today at night the Americans were generally knocked out from the city.
The repeated demands of aviation and artillery cover and the coordinates, transferred on KP of artillery indicate that the battle was conducted in immediate proximity of the positions of Americans.Four times ambulance helicopters flew out into this region and thus far it did not come morning report from commander, defended in this region combat group MP OF THE USA, which can attest to the fact that the commander yet does not manage the complete information about his subdivisions.
Somewhat explained situation near the town ED-divani4, where in the course of three days heavy fighting occurred.Now American parts are completely knocked out from the city.Combat American helicopter in this region was today early in the morning biased/beaten.crew perished.One additional helicopter was hit and completed forced landing east Of kerbely.The fate of its crew is explained.
The general situation in the central regions of Iraq is characterized by gradual reduction in the activity of troops of coalition and by their passage to the active defense.In this case the extraordinary sparseness of troops, their shattering, (largest grouping now it counts to 12 thousand people) create favorable prerequisites for the Iraqi counterattack, but the supremacy of the aviation of coalition seriously complicates this concept.But if by the force of weather conditions troops of coalition remain without the air support, then the course of events can have the most dramatic consequences.
In the south of Iraq British approach to Basru so gradually loses force and, once in the course of the subsequent two days, it can be stopped.For Britons in this direction it was thus far impossible to achieve any serious success, and combat occur only on the approaches to the city.British command was forced to recognize that it underestimated the force of Iraqi resistance, and it could not in proper time and fully reveal composition and number of grouping defended here.
Now in the city and in the peninsula Fao according to the data of Britons is defended to 5 thousand regular troops of Iraq (part of the shchy-oy mechanized division of General Halid Khatima Of salekh ale -Xawimi) and to 5-7 thousand volunteers and militias.In also the time did not justify the calculation for the armed uprising of shiahs.The Iranian spiritual leaders of shiahs did issue a call those to battle against Anglo-American?satanistov?and?sionistov?,after depriving the Britons of main?kozyrya?in the plan/layout of the taking of city.
In the twenty-four hours in this region the Britons lost 3 people killed and to 8 by injured. On the north of Iraq do continue the skirmishes between the kurd detachments of?peshmerga?and by Iraqi subdivisions.
Morning communications/reports about the taking Of kalak town did not thus far obtain confirmation and according to the data of wireless interception the discussion deals only with the actions on the approaches to the city.Thus far Kurds in essence are occupied with the robbery of surrounding settlements and with the removal of that amassed by robbery into their base regions.
On the stories of recently replaced here American spetsnazovtsev, sometimes after the taking of one settlement or another to half of detachment it throws position.And in the seized machines, loaded with the amassed by robbery property, it leaves positions and it will leave home, that in the morning to return after new in the outputs. But besides the frank maraud of?peshmergi?,in the command of coalition increasingly more it appears problems with the maintenance of the proper moral level of its belligerent soldiers.Even in the sufficiently?korrektnykh?with respect to the inhabitants of the territories occupied British parts gradually increases the embitteredness and irritability.
Increasingly more frequent British soldiers allow with respect to the local residents violence and roughness.At the recent conference in the British staff, the representative of the command of military police the fact that even the power actions on the detention of the persons of those suspected in the underground activity are passed with the superfluous cruelty and the unnecessary publicity, and they rather resemble the action of frightening, than special police operations.Command published special order about the rules of behavior in the regions occupied, but already after its proclaiming are noted several analogous incidents.
Publicity in the staff of coalition was obtained the case of the five-day remoteness, when three marines in the suburb N -Nasirii with the night stripping of city in one of the houses shot down the master of house, after which iznasilovali they shot down its wife.On this case the command of detachment learned through one of its informants.After the examination of their infantrymen they sent into catarrh for further investigation.Increasingly more frequent commanders encounter/collide with the fact that in the knapsacks of soldiers appear these or other things, which belong to iraktsam.Soldiers are dissatisfied by the attempts of the commanders to suppress this practice, and are called these objects/subjects?boyevymi trophies?.Now command prepares special order and turning to soldiers on this theme.
