Iraqi Resistance Thwarts US Attack, 30 Killed
Apr 28, 2004

The Iraqi Resistance crushed a powerful American attack mounted against al-Jawlan neighborhood, according to Mafkarat al-Islam�s correspondent in the besieged city. The American assault began after sunrise on Monday and finally met its end as evening set in, the correspondent and eyewitness wrote in a report posted at 00:02 on the morning of Tuesday, 27 April 2004.
The Iraqi Resistance drove the US Marine invaders into a pincer, as it is called, within al-Jawlan. Then the Resistance violently attacked the rear lines of the American forces cutting the advanced forces off from the rest of the attacking force. As a result more than two-thirds of the entire force of Americans were cut off, and many of them were wiped out on the battlefield. The remainder were able to flee into neighboring houses, but the people informed the Resistance fighters about their presence and they were able to hit them there. As a result, the total number of Americans killed exceeded 30.
US Marine invaders attempted to break the ring around their offensive force but the fierce battle that ensued blocked any rescue. The first attack resulted in the destruction of one tank and the killing of all aboard, in addition to the destruction of two vehicles and the death of most of those aboard them when they came under Resistance gunfire.
The second attack cost the American side even graver losses. Three tanks were destroyed with rocket-propelled grenades, killing all aboard the vehicles. In addition an armored vehicle and four Humvees were destroyed, killing most of those inside.
US Delay Entering Fallujah
As of this morning, the US has decided to postpone its deadline to enter the city. While they stated movtives are to allow "rebels" more time to turn over their heavy weaponsm it is absolutely clear that this condition will not be met regarelss of the time frame. in relaity, events on the ground indicate that the decision not to enter the city today as orginally schduled comes because of fears of high American casualties should the Marines move in.
Joint patrols that were also scheduled to begin today have also been delayed indefintely.
At press time, sporatic fighting continues in Fallujah.

I wouldn't be surprised if the body count was much higher than what's being reported.
