Saddam 1 from 18 bombs targeting high value sites
Maj. Gen. Stanley stated the strike produced a hole in the ground with three houses destroyed and uncertain survivors. Iraqi rescue crews recovered bodies, including a child and part of a young woman, as questions arose about who was inside. Two bunker busters were used though no underground facilities were confirmed. Officials labelled the target a restaurant by some accounts, but neighbors said none nearby was damaged. Saddam's status and the fates of his sons remained unclear amid ongoing intelligence assessments.
