Saddam Hussein Near Tikrit Hiding Amid Harsh Iraq Countryside
U S forces say Saddam Hussein likely hides near Tikrit in dust towns and date palm groves, moving frequently to elude pursuit. Maj Gen Ray Odierno notes captures of his former bodyguards help shrink his support network as raids probe tribal ties and suspected sites. Tikrit remains dangerous for troops amid ongoing ambushes and attacks.

Israeli Raid Kills Hamas Bombmaker in Nablus Fight
Israeli commandos killed 26 year old Hamas bombmaker Mohammed Hanbali and destroyed a seven story building in Nablus after surrounding the structure and ordering residents out. An Israeli soldier died and four were wounded in the clash. The raid comes amid political turmoil as Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas faces a confidence vote tied to U S backed peace plans and a broader battle over the road map. Palestinian officials accuse Israel of undermining the Palestinian Authority while Hamas vows reprisals after an attack that killed 22 on a Jerusalem bus last month.
