Falluja Will Get Government Aid

While US marines are bombing Falluja resistance from the air, Iraq's interim government has said it will send food and medical teams into the city. The move follows an appeal by the Red Cross, which said it feared for the plight of civilians after the US-led assault against insurgents. US-led forces continue to encounter fierce displays of resistance in southern zones of Falluja. But a top US commander says the offensive there has "broken the back of the insurgency" across Iraq.
