MOSUL, IRAQ (January 29, 2005) – Multi-National Forces from 1st Brigade, 25th Infantry Division (Stryker Brigade Combat Team) were able to defuse a roadside bomb following a tip received through the Joint Coordination Center in northern Iraq yesterday.

The tip came from an Iraqi citizen who had called the Joint Coordination Center to inform them of the bomb planted in northeastern Mosul. Only four days ago another tip in the same area resulted in a roadside bomb being defused. These types of courageous acts demonstrate the commitment of Iraqi citizens to ensuring a safe and peaceful Iraq.

Multi-National Forces encourage citizens of Iraq to cooperate with security forces and turn in military weapons and equipment.

Multi-National Forces from Task Force Freedom continue to work together with members of the Iraqi Security Forces, leaders and citizens of Iraq to help build and maintain a prosperous and democratic nation. Anyone with information on anti-Iraqi insurgent activities should call the Joint Coordination Center’s telephone numbers at 513462 or 07701623300.
