High-Value Al Qaeda Target Captured
BAGHDAD – Soldiers from 1st Battalion, 21st Infantry, 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment, Multi-National Division – Baghdad, captured a suspected al-Qaeda in Iraq leader in the Abu Ghuraib region of the Iraqi capitol Feb. 9.
This suspected AQI operator is believed to be a key facilitator of terrorist activities in southern Baghdad. He is the regiment’s number-one, high-value target and is being held for questioning.
It is believed the detention of the suspect will significantly contribute to the continually improving security situation in Abu Ghraib. Due to its proximity to major highways and northeast Baghdad, security and stability in Abu Ghraib is significant.
Stability allows the economy and quality of life for local residents to improve and accelerates the improving security situation in the Iraqi capital.
“The detention of this terrorist suspect demonstrates that we continue to aggressively pursue Al-Qaeda in Iraq,” said Maj. Jon Pendell, spokesperson for 2nd Stryker Cavalry Regiment.
