One Iraqi National Guard soldier killed

(TFO press release)

MOSUL, IRAQ (June 23, 2004) – One Iraqi National Guard (ING) soldier was killed today when a roadside bomb exploded on an ING patrol in southern Mosul at approximately 11:55 a.m. Reports confirm that at least four other soldiers wounded in the attack have been evacuated to a military hospital in Mosul, while an unconfirmed number of ING soldiers have been taken to a local hospital.

Iraqi National Guard soldiers assist other local security forces in Mosul in maintaining peace in and around the city. This is yet another example of Anti-Iraq forces attacking Iraqi security forces who are working to improve conditions in Iraq and facilitate the transfer of sovereignty on June 30. The terrorists have no regard for the lives of those who are helping to maintain security in the country as they continue to directly oppose the success of a democratic and free Iraq.
