Fallujah invasion tally and fighting details update
A military spokesman estimated 42 insurgents killed across Fallujah as the main assault began, with 12 civilians dead and 17 wounded reported by a Fallujah clinic. Two Marines died when their bulldozer flipped into the Euphrates, while insurgents roamed the streets and fighters fired on U S forces amid mosque loudspeakers. Defense Secretary Rumsfeld and General Casey spoke on victory prospects and civilian evacuation plans amid martial law and a curfew. A U S and Iraqi operation, al Fajr, included thousands of troops and ongoing humanitarian preparations for post battle fallout.
