Missan police map out new plan as army withdraws from Amara
MISSAN / Aswat al-Iraq: Missan police department mapped out a new security plan after the withdrawal of army forces from the Amara city, local police chief said on Monday.

“The police prepared a security plan after the 10th division of the Iraqi army withdraws from Amara city,” General Ismail Arar al-Majedi told Aswat al-Iraq news agency.

“The plan includes removing army blocs and checkpoints,” he added.

Amara, the capital of Missan, lies 390 km south of Baghdad.
Life goes back more to normal in southern Iraq. The local coppe shoppes maintain whatever semblance of law and order there will be, and the army -- we hope -- works to defend the country instead of policing it.
