Sunday, 26 December 2004.
Al-Fallujah.
Seven hundred civilian bodies recovered from al-Fallujah ruins to date; 504 of them women and children.
Dr. Tamir Salih al-'Ani, who is in charge of the morgue in al-Fallujah General Hospital has reported that emergency teams in al-Fallujah Hospital have recovered 700 bodies of Iraqis from the ruins of houses destroyed in the course of the US aggressors’ offensive on the city. Dr. Salih confirmed that among the 700 bodies were 504 bodies of women and children. The rest are the bodies of elderly and middle aged men.
Dr. Salih explained that the bodies were dug out from the ruins on the streets of al-Fallujah, recovered from rooftops, and dug out of gardens. Many of the dead perished in barbarous ways, their bodies burned by American chemical weapons. A number of others had been stabbed. The body of one woman showed that she had been bayoneted in her thigh, chest, and head.
Mafkarat al-Islam’s correspondent reported that these findings were the result of work done in just six of al-Fallujah’s neighborhoods. There are in all 27 residential neighborhoods in the city. The death toll is thus constantly rising as there are still large numbers of reports of buried bodies on which the medical teams have not yet had a chance to follow up.
Resistance ambushes US column south of al-Fallujah.
Iraqi Resistance forces attacked a US column on a dirt road leading to some date palm groves in the Zawbi' area, 30km south of al-Fallujah at 9:30am Sunday. The attack totally destroyed an Abrams tank and a Humvee. Nine Americans were killed and two more injured.
Al-Qa’im.
Heavy fighting in western al-Qa’im.
Fierce fighting broke out in al-Qa’im on the Syrian border at 8am and lasted until 11am local time Sunday between the Resistance and US occupation troops. Eyewitnesses told Mafkarat al-Islam that the fighting raged in the al-'Ubaydi neighborhood of the western part of the city near the western Customs Department offices, and left 19 US military vehicles ablaze: as well as five tanks, two Humvees and personnel carriers that were transporting American troops to the US base west of the city. The Resistance also shot down a Cobra helicopter in the center of the city as it was on its way to rescue the US column that was under attack.
Puppet police sources told the witnesses that 49 American troops had been killed as a result of the fighting, since the troop transport vehicles were full of men when they were destroyed.
The witnesses said that 34 Resistance fighters were martyred in the fighting. Some 90 to 120 Resistance fighters took part in the attack. They swooped down on the American troops, taking advantage of the fact that the area was free of passersby and civilian cars. The area is known for its rough, hilly terrain. The Americans had set up towers to keep watch over their forces as they passed through the area, but today, Resistance fighters attacked the towers and destroyed three of them. The puppet police reported that nine American troops were killed in the Resistance attacks on the observation towers.

Dr. Nadiyah Khalid, a physician at al-Yarmuk Hospital in Baghdad reported that one of the wounded men is in extremely grave condition. She said that the hospital received three bodies with wounds, one of them dead on arrival, one in grave condition and the third in moderate condition.
Video of resistance attack on "high-ranking US officer" broadcast on al-Jazeera.
Al-Jazeera satellite TV broadcast a video tape made by a Resistance group called the Brigades of Islamic Rage – 'Umar ibn al-Khattab Squadron, that showed a fighter preparing the bomb, that was apparently large inside a donkey cart. The video showed two masked fighters driving the donkey cart on a farm road in the at-Tarimiyah area north of Baghdad, a road used by US military vehicles. Later it showed the bomb exploding and destroying a US Humvee in the area. The statement that accompanied the video said that the target was a high ranking US officer and that the attack took place at 3:59pm Friday.

Iraqi Resistance forces in Ba'qubah attacked the motorcade of puppet governor 'Abdallah ar-Rashid at 2pm Sunday as it was heading towards the governorate building.

Some sources in the Iraqi puppet police said that the governor was wounded in the attack.
Mosul.
Puppet official abducted near Mosul.
Resistance forces abducted the puppet official in charge of the district of ash-Sharqat in Mosul Province, Muhammad al-'Ayni at 8am Sunday as he was leaving his home to go to work. The correspondent of Mafkarat al-Islam reported eyewitnesses as saying that the official’s body guard did not fire a shot after the Resistance attackers asked him not to get involved, threatening to kill him.
Al-'Ayni had received several warnings previously, threatening him if he did not abandon service 'as a tail to the occupation’ as their warnings phrased it. But in response, al-'Ayni ordered raids on the homes of families of Resistance fighters and arrested many of their relatives.
Resistance assassinates translator collaborators who failed to heed warnings to quit their jobs.
An Iraqi translator collaborator and his wife, also a collaborator translator, were assassinated in the Sumar neighborhood of Mosul at 9am Sunday morning. The correspondent for Mafkarat al-Islam reported tha the Resistance had previously sent numerous warnings to all the translators and contractors working with the American occupation, telling them to leave their jobs and giving them a grace period of seven days in which to do so. That grace period ended Sunday morning.
Seven collaborator translators several days ago announced that they were quitting their work with the Americans, but the couple killed on Sunday failed to quit their jobs and were therefore killed.
Resistance rocket attacks avenge religious leader’s murder by US forces.
US forces stormed into the home of the professor of Islamic sciences and Islamist activist Dr. Mahfuz al-Qazzaz in Mosul’s al-Asatidhah neighborhood and shot him to death in a hail of bullets. A medical report issued by the Main Hospital of Mosul listed the cause of death as direct bullet wounds to the head. Mafkarat al-Islam’s correspondent in Mosul reported that local people attribute the assassination of Dr. al-Qazzaz to his insistence that it was obligatory for people to fight the US occupation, and the fact that he regarded anyone collaborating with the American invaders as an infidel.
In response to the murder of Dr. al-Qazzaz, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that Resistance forces carried out a major attack from 1pm to 4pm Sunday on several occupation positions, firing off fifty-four 120mm mortar rounds, as well at Grad and Tariq rockets. Explosions could be heard and flame could be seen inside the US al-Ghazlani camp in northern Mosul.
Resistance attack on US column in Mosul.
Iraqi Resistance forces attacked a US column in the al-Masarif neighborhood east of Mosul at 3pm Sunday, killing three US troops and wounding one more who was burned by gasoline by passers by who chanted: "You burned our library; we will burn your hearts!"] – a reference to the US burning of the Islamic Teaching Library in al-Fallujah. The remainder of the column fled before the Resistance attack, leaving their beleaguered colleagues to fend for themselves in the street.
Resistance group plays video of Mosul martyrdom attack.
The Resistance organization Jaysh Ansar as-Sunnah (The Army of the Partisans of the Sunnah Prophet Muhammad’s Practice) broadcast a video showing the martyrdom attack on the US military camp in Mosul that took place on Tuesday, killing a reported 160 US troops. The video, broadcast on the organization’s website showed the blast which occurred when a truck driven by a martyrdom fighter rammed into the lunchroom on the base.

The Resistance organization at-Tawhid wa-al-Jihad announced that it had battled some 70 US troops in the battle.
The Mafkarat al-Islam correspondent in al-Qa’im reported that the US troops fled the battlefield, running in every direction, making it easy for the Resistance to kill 14 of them in addition to the 70 killed in the battle itself. In his dispatch posted at 9:14pm Monday night, the correspondent said that US troops still encircled the entire city, but that the Resistance continued to control the inside of the city.
Meanwhile, Mafkarat al-Islam reported that 13 women have come out to join the men in fighting the US occupation forces in the city. The Brigades of the Partisans of the West fired more than 100 mortar rounds on US troop concentrations to the east and the south of al-Qa’im.
The correspondent of Mafkarat al-Islam came under fire as he covered the battle in al-Qa’im when an American sniper 200 meters away who clearly saw that the correspondent was a journalist (since he was carrying cameras with him) shot at him and struck him in his right thigh. The correspondent is now recuperating in the ar-Ra’is Hospital in the city. The director of the hospital told Mafkarat al-Islam that the wound was a light one and that he would probably be able to leave the hospital after a week.
