Fallujah airstrike kills 15 members of family in hub of al Zarqawi network
In Fallujah, U S forces dropped two tons of bombs on a purported militant safe house, killing 15 family members and turning the building into a 30 foot deep sand and rubble pit. Witnesses describe body parts recovered and a wall splattered with blood as rescuers pulled items from the rubble. The attack follows a wave of violence across Iraq as NATO considers a broader role and Prime Minister Allawi seeks to curb attacks by Zarqawi loyalists and Saddam loyalists alike.
