BAGHDAD, July 11 (KUNA) -- One civilian was killed and two others were wounded in a joint US-Iraqi military operation in Nasseriya City on Friday, the media advisor of the Multinational Forces in Iraq said.
"Joined Iraqi and US forces carried out an airdrop at 3:00 am today with a view to arresting a wanted man believed to finance special groups in Al-Thawra suburb in central Nasseriya City. They shot dead a man who put up a weapon against them and injured two others," Abdel-Latif al-Rayan told the Kuwait News Agency (KUNA).
The report was confirmed by Nasseriya Municipal Council Chairman Ali Sadkhan, who said US forces cordoned off a street in Al-Thawra suburb from 2: 00 to 4:00 am on Friday.
He added that a sixty-old man was killed while his daughter and son injured in the operation.
