So behauptet wenigstens der Widerstand.
US forces currently occupy positions behind the highway south of al-Fallujah, and the Resistance is in control of the industrial zone and the ash-Shuhada’, al-Jubayl, an-Nazal, and al-‘Askari neighborhoods in the southern and eastern parts of the city. There is no US presence in those areas.
The US forces are present, however, behind the highway east of al-Fallujah, now occupying the positions they formerly held before the US offensive began three weeks ago.
In stunning move: Resistance fighters break into al-Fallujah to bring supplies to city’s defenders.
In a qualitatively new development, Iraqi Resistance fighters outside of al-Fallujah broke through the US ring around the city on Saturday afternoon to bring supplies and raise the morale of the defenders of the city.
The correspondent of Mafkarat al-Islam in al-Fallujah reported that a large group of Resistance fighters advanced towards al-Fallujah from al-Azraqiyah, a village west of the city.
The break in and drive through the city lasted just over two hours, beginning at 3:30pm Saturday and ending at 5:45pm. The Resistance fighters who broke through US lines to get into the city brought new types of supplies to the defenders of the city, the nature of which was not disclosed to the Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent.
The correspondent wrote that American forces in and around the city fell back before the large-scale Resistance break through. Some of the US troops fell back into the ad-Dubbat neighborhood from the area of the breakthrough, others fell back to the northwest of the al-Jawlan neighborhood.
The fact that the Americans retreated in the face of the attack came as a surprise, and was attributed to the speed of the Resistance breakthrough and the fragility of the US ring around the city.
The operation reflected the exhaustion and weakness that have afflicted the US Marines as a result of the constant operations of the Iraqi Resistance in and around al-Fallujah. Some six days ago Mafkarat al-Islam quoted a Resistance leader as saying that something very important was expected to happen in the Battle of al-Fallujah in the next day or so, and it appears that the breakthrough was this major development, although it was delayed due to the difficult military situation in the city.
Wenn da was dran ist, passt das auch nahtlos zum Rückgang des Dollars.
Es gibt ja bekanntlich stets viele"Projektionszonen".
