BUILDING DESTROYED AFTER GUNFIRE ATTACKS
CAMP FALLUJAH, Iraq Regimental Combat Team 5 Marines patrolling on foot Sunday in Hasa, Iraq, were attacked with small arms fire by insurgents positioned in a residential structure.
The Marines attempted to maneuver on the building but were unable to enter due to the high volume of insurgent fire.
The Marines then fired a shoulder fired, anti-tank rocket at the building, and when the fire continued from the insurgents, the Marines employed precision-guided ordnance to destroy the building.
No additional damage or casualties to civilians or Coalition Forces were reported.
