TITLE: ALLEGED JAYSH AL-MAHDI PLANS TO KIDNAP U.S. SOLDIERS IN BAGHDAD, IRAQ



AS OF EARLY DECEMBER 2006, JAYSH AL-MAHDI ALLEGELY PLANNED TO ATTACK U. S. HUMVEES TRAVELING IN TWO TO THREE CAR CONVOYS WITH THE INTENT TO KIDNAP U.S. SOLDIERS IN BAGHDAD, IRAQ. JAYSH AL-MAHDI ALLEGEDLY PLANNED TO CONDUCT THE KIDNAPPINGS SOMETIME AROUND THE NEW YEAR, 30 DECEMBER 2006 TO EARLY JANUARY 2007. A SENIOR JAYSH AL-MAHDI COMMANDER, HASAN ((SALIM)), ORDERED A SUBORDINATE, SHAYKH AZHAR AL- ((DULAYMI)), TO PLAN AND EXECUTE THE ATTACK. DULAYMI PLANNED TO TARGET U.S. CONVOYS CONSISTING OF TWO TO THREE HUMVEES AS THEY TRAVELED INTO UNDERGROUND TUNNELS IN AL-QANAT AREA OF BAGHDAD. DULAYMI SPECIFICALLY PLANNED TO USE THE FOLLOWING AREAS TO STAGE HIS ATTACKS INCLUDING AL-BALADIYAT AND ZAYUNA STREETS, SADR CITY AND PALESTINE STREET, THE AREA OF AL-SHA'AB WHICH WAS LOCATED NORTH EAST OF SADR CITY AND AL-SULAYKH. DULAYMI PLANNED TO USE FAKE ROAD BLOCKS IN THE TUNNELS TO STOP THE HUMVEES AND THEN ATTACK THEM WITH IMPROVISED EXPLOSIVE DEVICES (IEDS) AND SMALL ARMS FIRE TO RENDER THE VEHICLES IMMOBILE. ONCE THE VEHICLES WERE INCAPACITATED, DULAYMI REPORTEDLY PLANNED TO TRY TO KILL AS FEW U.S. SOLDIERS AS POSSIBLE IN AN EFFORT TO TAKE A GREATER NUMBER OF HOSTAGES. DULAYMI WAS ORDERED TO TAKE ANY CAPTIVES TO SADR CITY. DULAYMI WAS PREVIOUSLY A SUNNI BUT CONVERTED TO SHI'A WHILE STUDYING IN AN NAJAF, IRAQ IN 1995.



SALIM CHOSE DULAYMI BECAUSE HE ALLEGEDLY TRAINED IN IRAN ON HOW TO CONDUCT PRECISION, MILITARY STYLE KIDNAPPINGS ( NFI ). DULAYMI REPORTEDLY OBTAINED HIS TRAINING FROM HIZBALLAH OPERATIVES NEAR QUM, IRAN, WHO WERE UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF IRANIAN ISLAMIC REVOLUTIONARY GUARD CORPS QUDS FORCE (IRGC-QF) OFFICERS IN JULY 2006. SALIM REPORTEDLY WANTED TO KIDNAP U.S. SOLDIERS IN AN EFFORT TO SEND A MESSAGE TO THE UNITED STATES THAT THEY SHOULD NOT ENCROACH UPON SADR CITY.



DULAYMI WAS ALLEGEDLY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE KIDNAPPING OF THE MINISTRY OF HIGHER EDUCATION IN LATE NOVEMBER 2006. SALIM REPORTEDLY ORDERED DULAYMI TO CONDUCT MASS HIGH PROFILE KIDNAPPINGS IN BAGHDAD TO PROMOTE INSTABILITY. THE ALLEGED PURPOSE BEHIND THE KIDNAPPINGS WAS TO PREVENT IRAQI PRIME MINISTER NURI AL-((MALIKI)) FROM IMPLEMENTING HIS RECONCILIATION PLAN.

INTEL REPORT: INVESTIGATION INTO DBE FIND ON 10 NOV 05 NEAR IRANIAN BORDER (LTIO

SERIAL NUMBER: HQ MND(SE) 202.1.2



AFTER AN INTERVIEW WITH THE 2IC DBE REGION 4 ( –––– –––– ) –– COMD DBE BORDER POLICE BASRA ( –––– –––– ) IT IS CLEAR THAT THE MOVEMENT OF EXPLOSIVES AND BOMB-MAKING EQUIPMENT WAS TAKING PLACE FROM IRAN INTO IRAQ ON THE NIGHT OF 9/10 NOV 05 IN NORTHERN BASRA PROVINCE. AN ANTI-SMUGGLING OPERATION MOUNTED BY THE DBE BORDER POLICE IN BASRA DISRUPTED THE MOVEMENT AND RECOVERED A QUANTITY OF BOMB-MAKING EQUIPMENT, INCLUDING EXPLOSIVELY FORMED PROJECTILES (EFPS). FURTHER DETAILS OF THE CIRCUMSTANCES SURROUNDING THIS EVENT APPEAR BELOW.

BASED UPON CREDIBLE INTELLIGENCE FOR THE PAST SEVERAL DAYS, MND-B HAS BEEN ASSESSING KH'S INTENT TO CONDUCT IDF ATTACKS TARGETING THE IZ . MND-B ALSO ASSESSES THAT AAH IS CONTINUING TO ADHERE TO THE CEASEFIRE. SINCE THE VISIT OF THE VICE PRESIDENT IN SEPTEMBER, IDF INCIDENTS HAVE FOLLOWED A TREND OF TWO ATTACKS PER MONTH, WITH A 17-21 DAY SEPARATION IN BETWEEN THOSE ATTACKS. IF THIS TREND CONTINUES, WE WILL MOST LIKELY SEE AN IDF INCIDENT AROUND 17 JANUARY 2010.

FOLLOWING THIS, ––––– –– –––– REPORTEDLY TRAVELED TO IRAN, POSSIBLY TO FACILITATE THE ATTACKS ON 31 DEC. OTHER REPORTING SEEMED TO SPECIFY THE USE OF 107MM ROCKETS.



ALSO, PREVIOUS REPORTING INDICATED THAT KH INTENDED TO CONDUCT ATTACKS TARGETING THE EMBASSY BY THE END OF THE YEAR.



THE COORDINATION OF THESE ATTACKS FROM AT LEAST FOUR DIFFERENT POINTS OF ORIGIN AROUND BAGHDAD, WITH FAIRLY GOOD ACCURACY AND EXECUTION, ARE SIMILAR IN TTPS TO THE IDF ATTACKS IN MID-SEPTEMBER, WHICH WERE CONFIRMED TO HAVE BEEN CONDUCTED BY KH. IN ADDITION, THE COORDINATION OF THESE ATTACKS, AND THE TIMING, INDICATES THAT THEY HAD AT LEAST THREE DIFFERENT IDF CELS COORDINATED TO CONDUCT THE ATTACKS ON 31DEC09. IT'S POSSIBLE THAT THEY WILL CONDUCT MORE ATTACKS WITHIN THE NEXT FEW DAYS (AS OF 1 JAN 10), SIMILAR TO THE PERIOD OF APPROXIMATELY FOUR DAYS IN SEPTEMBER THAT THEY TARGETED THE IZ ON CONSECUTIVE DAYS (15-18 SEP).

AT 1047D, TF 5-73 REPORTS A DIRECT ATTACK IN THE DIYALA PROVINCE, E OF BALAD RUZ, AT GRID 38SNC 8296 2128.



SUMMARY OF INCIDENT ALONG IRAQ-IRAN BORDER ON 7 SEP 06



THIS MORNING, A PLT/C/5-73CAV PARTICIPATED IN A PARTNERSHIP ROUTE RECON, LED BY DBE –– ––––– , AND AN IA SQD FROM 3RD CO, 2-1/5IA ( IA SQD LEADER AND 5 SOLDIERS). CF LT ******** IS THE PLATOON LEADER. THE RECON WAS ALONG A KNOWN ROUTE WHICH LT ––––– HAD TRAVELED FREQUENTLY AND ESTABLISHED CHECKPOINTS ALONG THIS ROUTE. PLTS TASK AND PURPOSE WAS TO CONDUCT A ZONE/ROUTE RECON AS JOINT OPERATION WITH IA AND DBE IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY KEY INFILTRATION ROUTES INTO IRAQ AND TO ASSESS THE C2 CAPABILITY AND COOPERATION BETWEEN THE IA & DBE . –– ––––– RODE IN THE LEAD IA TRUCK WITH THE IA SQUAD, WHILE –– –––– , THE IA SQD LEADER, ROAD IN A PLT VEHICLE.



SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN TO CF LT ********* WERE AS FOLLOWS: USE MAIN ROADS TO GET TO CASTLE ACCESS ROADS; THE DBE CASTLES ALONG THE BORDER. NO CROSS COUNTRY MOVEMENT FROM CASTLE TO CASTLE WAS AUTHORIZED DUE TO MINEFIELD DANGERS. THEY WERE ALSO TO NOT TO COME WITHIN 1KM OF BORDER. PATROL USED BFT AND GPS TO CONFIRM THEIR LOCATION AT ALL TIMES. FOCUS WAS NOT THE IRANIANS THEMSELVES BUT INFILTRATION ROUTES AND THE MOVEMENT OF ACCELERANTS. ALL ACKNOWLEDGED SPECIAL SENSITIVITIES AROUND THE BORDER DUE TO UN SANCTIONS AND IRANIAN CONCERN THAT US WAS ATTEMPTING TO MOUNT AN INVASION. THEY ALSO NOTED A PREVIOUS ARTICLE ABOUT BRITISH WHO ALSO MOVED FORCES TOWARDS SOUTHERN IRANIAN BORDER.



AS THE PATROL APPROACHED THE IRAQI BORDER, –– ––––– , IN THE LEAD VEHICLE, STOPPED THE PATROL. HE AND THE IA SQUAD WERE 200M AHEAD OF PATROL MAIN BODY. –– ––––– IDENTIFIED THIS POINT AS A FREQUENT CROSSING POINT. –– ––––– IDENTIFIED 2 IRANIANS RUN FROM THE VICINITY OF THIS LOCATION BACK TO IRANIAN SIDE OF THE BORDER.



THE PATROL SCANNED THE AREA WITH THEIR LRAS . WHILE MOVING FORWARD TO THE IA VEHICLE AHEAD, AN ARMED IRANIAN SOLDIER RIDING A MOTORCYCLE APPROACHED THE IA VEHICLE. THAT THIS POINT THE IRAQI LEAD VEHICLE WAS 75M AHEAD OF US MAIN BODY. THE IA SOLDIERS STOPPED THE MOTORCYCLE, AND DISMOUNTED THEIR TRUCK AND WALKED APPROX 100M TO THE FRONT OF THEIR VEHICLE TO TALK TO IRANIAN SOLDIER.



WITH THEIR LRAS , THE PATROL SCANNED THE IRANIAN BORDER CASTLE APPROX 2200-2500M AWAY AND IDENTIFIED A FIGHTING POSITION WEST OF THE CASTLE CONTAINING 2 X T62S AND A DSKA. WITHIN APPROX. 2 MINUTES OF THE IA STOPPING THE MOTORCYCLE, TWO IRANIAN TRUCKS MOVED SOUTH DOWN THE WINDING ROAD FROM THE CASTLE AND 8 SOLDIERS DISMOUNTED EACH TRUCK (16 TOTAL). THE IRANIANS STARTED TO TALK TO THE IA PATROL, DRAWING THE SQUAD AWAY FROM THEIR VEHICLE, APPARENTLY TO SEPARATE THE TWO IN ORDER TO DENY THEIR ABILITY TO LEAVE EXPEDITIOUSLY. AN IRANIAN BORDER CAPTAIN LINKED UP WITH THE IA ELEMENT AT THE LEAD OF THE COLUMN, CLAIMING TO WANT TO DISCUSS BORDER CROSSING PROBLEMS. THE 2 GROUPS OF 8 IRANIAN SOLDIERS IMT D AND TOOK UP TACTICAL POSITIONS NORTH OF THE COLUMN ON THE EAST AND WEST SIDES OF THE ROAD. THE IRANIAN SOLDIERS WERE ARMED WITH SMALL ARMS WEAPONS.



CF LT *********** CALLED HIS LEAD TRUCK (100M TO HIS FRONT) TELLING THE SQUAD LEADER TO MOTION TO THE IA THAT THEY (THE IA ) NEEDED TO GO. WHEN THAT DIDN'T WORK HE SENT HIS INTERPRETER, ––––– (A TITAN LOCAL NATIONAL HIRED FROM FOB CALDWELL) TO GO FORWARD TO TELL THE IA THAT THEY ALL NEEDED TO DEPART. THE INTERPRETER DID SO, BUT RETURNED TO CF LT ********* TO SAY THAT EVERYTHING WAS OK AND THE IRANIANS WANTED TO HAVE A MEETING TO TALK ABOUT THE BORDER. CF LT ************ MOVED FORWARD FAR ENOUGH TO SEE THE IA ALL OFF THEIR TRUCK, GUN UNMANNED, WITH THEIR GEAR OFF, SHOWING PICTURES TO IRANIAN SOLDIERS AND HAVING TEA WITH THE IRANIANS.



CF LT ********* HAD THE INTERPRETER ONCE AGAIN TELL THE IA THAT THEY MUST LOAD UP AND GO. TWO MORE IRANIAN TRUCKS APPEARED AND 8 SOLDIERS EACH (16 TOTAL) DISMOUNTED AND TACTICALLY MANEUVERED INTO TACTICAL POSITIONS FURTHER SOUTH ON THE DIRECT EAST AND WEST SIDES OF CF LT ************** PLATOON COLUMN. WEAPONS CARRIED WERE AK47S, RPKS AND RPGS . THE IRANIANS WERE CLEARLY INTENT UPON ENCIRCLING THE PATROL.



CF LT *********** HAD HIS PLT START TO SLOWLY BACK THEIR TRUCKS UP (SOUTH). AT THIS POINT, ––––– (INTERPRETER) WENT RUNNING BACK FROM THE LEAD POSITION TELLING CF LT ******* NOT TO MOVE OR THE IRANIANS WOULD ENGAGE THE COLUMN. CF LT *********** HELD HIS GUYS AND THEN MOVED FORWARD TO TRY AND MOTION THE IA TO GET IN THEIR TRUCK AND GO. HE THEN HAD ––––– GO ALL THE WAY FORWARD TO TELL THE IA THAT HE WAS LOW ON GAS AND MUST RETURN. ––––– RETURNED AND SAID THAT EVERYTHING WAS OK - THE IRANIANS SAID THEY WOULD GIVE THEM GAS AND WANTED TO CONTINUE THE MEETING. CF LT ********** THEN TOLD HIS GUYS THEY WERE LEAVING.



THE IRANIANS TO THE NORTHWEST OF THE COLUMN STARTED TO ENGAGE THE PATROL BEFORE CF LT ********** TRUCKS MOVED. CF LT ********* GAVE THE COMMAND TO RETURN FIRE AND RETROGRADE BACK TO THE CHECK POINT 14 (VIC NC 627243). THE ENTIRE COLUMN WAS UNDER FIRE AND RETURNED FIRE AS THEY CONDUCTED U-TURNS TO LEAVE THE AREA. AN RPG GUNNER WHO HAD MOVED TO THE SOUTHERN END OF THE COLUMN AND WAS ON THE ROAD TRYING TO ENGAGE CF LT *********** PLT WAS ENGAGED AND KILLED BY A .50 CAL GUNNER. WHILE BREAKING CONTACT AND RETURNING TO CP14, THE PLT RECEIVED RPG AND INDIRECT FIRE ALL THE WAY BACK TO CP 14 - WELL INSIDE IRAQI TERRITORY AND WEST OF THE BORDER CASTLE. THE ENTIRE ENGAGEMENT LASTED 1:30 TO 2:00 MINUTES. AS THE PLT BROKE CONTACT - IRANIAN INDIRECT FIRE LANDED AROUND THEM FOR APPROX 5:00 MINUTES. TOTAL NUMBER OF IRANIAN CASUALTIES IS UNKNOWN, MINUS THE RPG GUNNER WHO WAS KILLED IN THE .50 CAL ENGAGEMENT.



UPON ARRIVAL AT CP14, IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT THE IA SOLDIERS HAD NOT FOLLOWED. WE ARE NOT SURE IF THE IA ATTEMPTED TO REMOUNT THEIR VEHICLE OR NOT. PROBABLY NOT THOUGH, AS THE IRANIANS APPEAR TO HAVE DELIBERATELY SEPARATED THEM FROM THEIR VEHICLE. THROUGHOUT THE DAY WE CONTINUED TO TRY TO REESTABLISH OBSERVATION OF THE IA SOLDIERS, VIA GROUND SURVEILLANCE, SHADOW UAV AND GLOBAL HAWK, TO NO AVAIL.



COL ********** CDR 3/4ID, RECEIVED WORD THIS EVENING FROM THE MANDALI POE JCC THAT THE IRANIANS HAVE INFORMED THEM THEY HAVE 4 IA SOLDIERS AND A DBE LT IN DETENTION. THEY DID NOT MENTION THE INTERPRETER, NOR A FIFTH IA SOLDIER. WE HAVE SUBMITTED AN RTQ TO THE CORPS PAO, AND RECOMMEND RELEASING TO TRY GETTING OUT AHEAD OF ANY IRANIAN CLAIMS OF CROSSING THE BORDER (EXASPERATED BY US KILLING ONE OF THEIR SOLDIERS).



AS OF 081800D: MNC-I STILL CONSIDERS THE 7 PERSONNEL DUSTWUN UNTIL WE HAVE PROOF OF THEIR STATUS. THERE WERE 19 US SOLDIERS (1 OFFICER AND 18 ENLISTED) PRESENT IN THE PATROL IN 4 UAH'S. ALL WERE FROM 5-73 CAV . CLOSED 171916JSEPT06



UPDATE: 041200C2006∞ 5 IA AND 1 BP RELEASED FROM IRAINIAN CUSTODY, INTERPETER TO BE RELEASED WITH IN NEXT 48 HOURS.

BDA: 3x AMCIT Detained by Iranians



PAO ASSESSMENT: All queries referred to the US embassy in Baghdad.



IO ASSESSMENT: IQATF will monitor for atmospherics on this SIGACT.



S2 ASSESSMENT: The lack of coordination on the part of these hikers, particularly after being forewarned, indicates an intent to agitate and create publicity regarding international policies on Iran. The leadership in Iran benefits as it focuses the Iranian population on a perceived external threat rather than internal dissension. Kurdish leaders remain concerned about international perceptions regarding security as they seek to increase investment in the KRG. Expect KRG leadership to intervene to return the 3 individuals and the Iranian government to accuse them of being spies. Additionally, KRG leadership may impose additional restrictions on private activities near the Iranian border.

DETAILS AS WE KNOW THEM AT THIS TIME. 1 X BRITISH PSD CONTRACTOR HAD ALTERCATIONS WITH 1 X AUSTRAILIAN AND 1 X BRITISH CO-WORKERS. ALTERCATION ESCALATED WHEN WEAPON WAS UTILIZED TO KILL CO-WORKERS. SUSPECT THEN FLED SCENE AND RAN THROUGH A INTERNAL CHECKPOINT OF RTI COMPOUND (MANNED BY US- 1-7TH FA SOLDIERS) AND SMASHED WINDOW OF GUARD SHACK. SUSPECT THEN CONTINUE ON AROUND THE CORNER AND ENCOUNTERED A LN WHICH HE PROCEEDED TO SHOOT WHILE RUNNING BY.

CURRENTLY SUSPECT IS HELD BY US IZ POLICE UNTIL FURTHER DETAILS CAN BE OBTAINED.



UPDATED INFORMATION AS OF 1100 HOURS:



3 Armor Group PSD workers started incident in UNAMI or Tamimi compound area. 2 Armor Group PSD were shot at starting location. Suspect fled area running on foot in a westerly direction when he crossed path of LN guard for Armor Group. Suspect proceeded to fire upon and wounded LN Guard (in Leg). That is when 1-7th Guards, SSG ––––– and SPC –– heard shots and SSG ––––– existed post to try and gain situational awareness of SAF . At this time he observed a individual running which quickly turned behind a T-wall. SSG ––––– immediately ran to vicinity of SAF audibles and found LN bleeding profusely from gunshot wound. He immediately preformed life saving (CLS field training) steps and administered tourniquet and yelled out for assistance in getting transportation for injured LN .



At the same time the suspect fled toward Guard shack C in which they were just receiving word from Guard shack B of a shooting. Suspect was told to halt and he began to pound on windows and then threw a rock, demanding to be let into the shack.



SGT –––– and PVT –––– could not confirm if suspect still had his weapon at this time and instructed him to get down on the ground.



Suspect then tried to flee in the direction of the UN SRSG residence and SGT –––– and PVT –––– immediately acted and tackled suspect. Suspect continued to resist arrest.



SGT –––– 's quickly shot a directed- aimed warning shot into sand bags which immediately stopped resistance from suspect so that he could be brought under control. Suspect was completely out of control until this time and after initial questioning, suspect stated that he had throw n his weapon into bushes between Guard shack B and Guard shack C- along T-wall.



Individual was detained before continuing on towards residence of UN SRSG. Unknown if suspect was going to harm UN SRG or was just looking for an escape route.



Suspect was taken by IZ Police in conjunction with Iraqi Police to 10th CSH for blood alcohol tests and for injuries sustained while fleeing and while being detained.



Upon release from CSH suspect will be taken to IP station and IZ Police will be assisting them in action forward on suspect.



Decisive actions by 1-7th soldiers SSG ––––– and SPC –– quite possibly saved the life of the LN guard and the quick thinking actions from SGT –––– and PVT –––– at Guard shack C possible saved others and maybe the UN SRG from further harm.

(THREAT REPORT) ASSASSINATION THREAT RPT PESHMERGA AND NINEWAH PROVINCIAL GOVERNMENT : 0 INJ/ DAM

3/1 05:070



WHO: Peshmerga and Ninewah Provincial Government



WHEN: 081131MAY09



WHERE: 38SLF 39917 29100



WHAT: Standoff at Peshmerga Checkpoint



HOW: On 7 May 2009, the Provincial Governor (PGOV) of Ninewa (Athiel al-Najafi) publically announced his intent to visit a sports event in the vicinity of Bashiqa NE of Mosul (vic LF 52 35). KRG perceive this action to be a challenge to the Kurdish Government. At 081131MAY09, KRG LNO to CP -North informed the DCG-S of MND-N ( BG ––––– ) that if the PGOV traveled into Kurdish controlled area, there would be a potential incident. MNC-I KRG LNO ( ––– ––––– ) received this report from KDP Assayish: if Najafi travels into Kurdish territory, the Peshmerga will stop him with force if necessary. Ninewa PRT ( –––– –––––––– ) contacted Najafi via phone to warn him of possible danger, but Najafi insisted on going anyway. 3/1 CAV moved forces to the Farmhouse Checkpoint (the first Peshmerga checkpoint on the road to Bashiqa) to monitor the situation. The Peshmerga at the checkpoint reported that they are ordered to shoot Najafi if he attempts to pass through the CP . IA (at the mirror CP ) reported that they are ordered to fire on Peshmerga if they fire on Najafi. The Ninewah Operations Center reported that PM Maliki ordered the NOC not to assist in securing PGOVs movement. IPs secured his movement anyway, under orders of MOI Ayden. Before Najafi arrived at the CP , the sports event in Bashiqa was cancelled. GOV Najafi moves to Hamdaniya instead, supposedly after hearing the event was cancelled.



S2 Assessment: Recent reporting illustrates increased potential for ethnic tensions within Ninewa as a direct result of Provincial Governor Athil Najafi's actions. On 08 May, Najafi attempted to visit Bartella, a largely Christian town with a KRG office in the disputed sub-district of Ba'sheqa, Hamdaniyah district; the area is considered Kurd controlled, and there are Peshmerga checkpoints along the periphery of area. When Najafi arrived in the area with his entourage, Peshmerga elements were reinforced from Irbil in preparation for potential confrontation. It is highly likely that Najafi was aware of the contention that such a visit would bring, and it is assessed that this visit was likely intentionally staged to make a statement of governmental ownership of the region.



IO Assessment: Increasing tensions between the Arabs and Kurds have been expected and this may be the first incident to elevate this tension to a higher level. PSYOP Detachment 1280 has been informed and aggressively pursuing viable products to prepare for future incidents. We will continue to monitor local media as well as task IQATF to monitor populace atmospherics, "word on the street" and Mosque prayers for possible rise in Arab-Kurd rhetoric. In addition 3-1 CAV IO will work with DIV IO to develop assessment and preparations for possible Talking Points.



PAO Assessment: Will do release



BDA: None

SUMMARY OF INCIDENT ALONG IRAQ-IRAN BORDER ON 7 SEP 06



THIS MORNING, A PLT/C/5-73CAV PARTICIPATED IN A PARTNERSHIP ROUTE RECON, LED BY DBE –– ––––– , AND AN IA SQD FROM 3RD CO, 2-1/5IA ( IA SQD LEADER AND 5 SOLDIERS). CF LT ******** IS THE PLATOON LEADER. THE RECON WAS ALONG A KNOWN ROUTE WHICH LT ––––– HAD TRAVELED FREQUENTLY AND ESTABLISHED CHECKPOINTS ALONG THIS ROUTE. PLTS TASK AND PURPOSE WAS TO CONDUCT A ZONE/ROUTE RECON AS JOINT OPERATION WITH IA AND DBE IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY KEY INFILTRATION ROUTES INTO IRAQ AND TO ASSESS THE C2 CAPABILITY AND COOPERATION BETWEEN THE IA & DBE . –– ––––– RODE IN THE LEAD IA TRUCK WITH THE IA SQUAD, WHILE –– –––– , THE IA SQD LEADER, ROAD IN A PLT VEHICLE.



SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS GIVEN TO CF LT ********* WERE AS FOLLOWS: USE MAIN ROADS TO GET TO CASTLE ACCESS ROADS; THE DBE CASTLES ALONG THE BORDER. NO CROSS COUNTRY MOVEMENT FROM CASTLE TO CASTLE WAS AUTHORIZED DUE TO MINEFIELD DANGERS. THEY WERE ALSO TO NOT TO COME WITHIN 1KM OF BORDER. PATROL USED BFT AND GPS TO CONFIRM THEIR LOCATION AT ALL TIMES. FOCUS WAS NOT THE IRANIANS THEMSELVES BUT INFILTRATION ROUTES AND THE MOVEMENT OF ACCELERANTS. ALL ACKNOWLEDGED SPECIAL SENSITIVITIES AROUND THE BORDER DUE TO UN SANCTIONS AND IRANIAN CONCERN THAT US WAS ATTEMPTING TO MOUNT AN INVASION. THEY ALSO NOTED A PREVIOUS ARTICLE ABOUT BRITISH WHO ALSO MOVED FORCES TOWARDS SOUTHERN IRANIAN BORDER.



AS THE PATROL APPROACHED THE IRAQI BORDER, –– ––––– , IN THE LEAD VEHICLE, STOPPED THE PATROL. HE AND THE IA SQUAD WERE 200M AHEAD OF PATROL MAIN BODY. –– ––––– IDENTIFIED THIS POINT AS A FREQUENT CROSSING POINT. –– ––––– IDENTIFIED 2 IRANIANS RUN FROM THE VICINITY OF THIS LOCATION BACK TO IRANIAN SIDE OF THE BORDER.



THE PATROL SCANNED THE AREA WITH THEIR LRAS . WHILE MOVING FORWARD TO THE IA VEHICLE AHEAD, AN ARMED IRANIAN SOLDIER RIDING A MOTORCYCLE APPROACHED THE IA VEHICLE. THAT THIS POINT THE IRAQI LEAD VEHICLE WAS 75M AHEAD OF US MAIN BODY. THE IA SOLDIERS STOPPED THE MOTORCYCLE, AND DISMOUNTED THEIR TRUCK AND WALKED APPROX 100M TO THE FRONT OF THEIR VEHICLE TO TALK TO IRANIAN SOLDIER.



WITH THEIR LRAS , THE PATROL SCANNED THE IRANIAN BORDER CASTLE APPROX 2200-2500M AWAY AND IDENTIFIED A FIGHTING POSITION WEST OF THE CASTLE CONTAINING 2 X T62S AND A DSKA. WITHIN APPROX. 2 MINUTES OF THE IA STOPPING THE MOTORCYCLE, TWO IRANIAN TRUCKS MOVED SOUTH DOWN THE WINDING ROAD FROM THE CASTLE AND 8 SOLDIERS DISMOUNTED EACH TRUCK (16 TOTAL). THE IRANIANS STARTED TO TALK TO THE IA PATROL, DRAWING THE SQUAD AWAY FROM THEIR VEHICLE, APPARENTLY TO SEPARATE THE TWO IN ORDER TO DENY THEIR ABILITY TO LEAVE EXPEDITIOUSLY. AN IRANIAN BORDER CAPTAIN LINKED UP WITH THE IA ELEMENT AT THE LEAD OF THE COLUMN, CLAIMING TO WANT TO DISCUSS BORDER CROSSING PROBLEMS. THE 2 GROUPS OF 8 IRANIAN SOLDIERS IMT D AND TOOK UP TACTICAL POSITIONS NORTH OF THE COLUMN ON THE EAST AND WEST SIDES OF THE ROAD. THE IRANIAN SOLDIERS WERE ARMED WITH SMALL ARMS WEAPONS.



CF LT *********** CALLED HIS LEAD TRUCK (100M TO HIS FRONT) TELLING THE SQUAD LEADER TO MOTION TO THE IA THAT THEY (THE IA ) NEEDED TO GO. WHEN THAT DIDN'T WORK HE SENT HIS INTERPRETER, ––––– (A TITAN LOCAL NATIONAL HIRED FROM FOB CALDWELL) TO GO FORWARD TO TELL THE IA THAT THEY ALL NEEDED TO DEPART. THE INTERPRETER DID SO, BUT RETURNED TO CF LT ********* TO SAY THAT EVERYTHING WAS OK AND THE IRANIANS WANTED TO HAVE A MEETING TO TALK ABOUT THE BORDER. CF LT ************ MOVED FORWARD FAR ENOUGH TO SEE THE IA ALL OFF THEIR TRUCK, GUN UNMANNED, WITH THEIR GEAR OFF, SHOWING PICTURES TO IRANIAN SOLDIERS AND HAVING TEA WITH THE IRANIANS.



CF LT ********* HAD THE INTERPRETER ONCE AGAIN TELL THE IA THAT THEY MUST LOAD UP AND GO. TWO MORE IRANIAN TRUCKS APPEARED AND 8 SOLDIERS EACH (16 TOTAL) DISMOUNTED AND TACTICALLY MANEUVERED INTO TACTICAL POSITIONS FURTHER SOUTH ON THE DIRECT EAST AND WEST SIDES OF CF LT ************** PLATOON COLUMN. WEAPONS CARRIED WERE AK47S, RPKS AND RPGS . THE IRANIANS WERE CLEARLY INTENT UPON ENCIRCLING THE PATROL.



CF LT *********** HAD HIS PLT START TO SLOWLY BACK THEIR TRUCKS UP (SOUTH). AT THIS POINT, ––––– (INTERPRETER) WENT RUNNING BACK FROM THE LEAD POSITION TELLING CF LT ******* NOT TO MOVE OR THE IRANIANS WOULD ENGAGE THE COLUMN. CF LT *********** HELD HIS GUYS AND THEN MOVED FORWARD TO TRY AND MOTION THE IA TO GET IN THEIR TRUCK AND GO. HE THEN HAD ––––– GO ALL THE WAY FORWARD TO TELL THE IA THAT HE WAS LOW ON GAS AND MUST RETURN. ––––– RETURNED AND SAID THAT EVERYTHING WAS OK - THE IRANIANS SAID THEY WOULD GIVE THEM GAS AND WANTED TO CONTINUE THE MEETING. CF LT ********** THEN TOLD HIS GUYS THEY WERE LEAVING.



THE IRANIANS TO THE NORTHWEST OF THE COLUMN STARTED TO ENGAGE THE PATROL BEFORE CF LT ********** TRUCKS MOVED. CF LT ********* GAVE THE COMMAND TO RETURN FIRE AND RETROGRADE BACK TO THE CHECK POINT 14 (VIC NC 627243). THE ENTIRE COLUMN WAS UNDER FIRE AND RETURNED FIRE AS THEY CONDUCTED U-TURNS TO LEAVE THE AREA. AN RPG GUNNER WHO HAD MOVED TO THE SOUTHERN END OF THE COLUMN AND WAS ON THE ROAD TRYING TO ENGAGE CF LT *********** PLT WAS ENGAGED AND KILLED BY A .50 CAL GUNNER. WHILE BREAKING CONTACT AND RETURNING TO CP14, THE PLT RECEIVED RPG AND INDIRECT FIRE ALL THE WAY BACK TO CP 14 - WELL INSIDE IRAQI TERRITORY AND WEST OF THE BORDER CASTLE. THE ENTIRE ENGAGEMENT LASTED 1:30 TO 2:00 MINUTES. AS THE PLT BROKE CONTACT - IRANIAN INDIRECT FIRE LANDED AROUND THEM FOR APPROX 5:00 MINUTES. TOTAL NUMBER OF IRANIAN CASUALTIES IS UNKNOWN, MINUS THE RPG GUNNER WHO WAS KILLED IN THE .50 CAL ENGAGEMENT.



UPON ARRIVAL AT CP14, IT WAS OBVIOUS THAT THE IA SOLDIERS HAD NOT FOLLOWED. WE ARE NOT SURE IF THE IA ATTEMPTED TO REMOUNT THEIR VEHICLE OR NOT. PROBABLY NOT THOUGH, AS THE IRANIANS APPEAR TO HAVE DELIBERATELY SEPARATED THEM FROM THEIR VEHICLE. THROUGHOUT THE DAY WE CONTINUED TO TRY TO REESTABLISH OBSERVATION OF THE IA SOLDIERS, VIA GROUND SURVEILLANCE, SHADOW UAV AND GLOBAL HAWK, TO NO AVAIL.



COL ********** CDR 3/4ID, RECEIVED WORD THIS EVENING FROM THE MANDALI POE JCC THAT THE IRANIANS HAVE INFORMED THEM THEY HAVE 4 IA SOLDIERS AND A DBE LT IN DETENTION. THEY DID NOT MENTION THE INTERPRETER, NOR A FIFTH IA SOLDIER. WE HAVE SUBMITTED AN RTQ TO THE CORPS PAO, AND RECOMMEND RELEASING TO TRY GETTING OUT AHEAD OF ANY IRANIAN CLAIMS OF CROSSING THE BORDER (EXASPERATED BY US KILLING ONE OF THEIR SOLDIERS).



AS OF 081800D: MNC-I STILL CONSIDERS THE 7 PERSONNEL DUSTWUN UNTIL WE HAVE PROOF OF THEIR STATUS. THERE WERE 19 US SOLDIERS (1 OFFICER AND 18 ENLISTED) PRESENT IN THE PATROL IN 4 UAH'S. ALL WERE FROM 5-73 CAV . CLOSED 171916JSEPT06

BDA: 3x AMCIT Detained by Iranians



PAO ASSESSMENT: All queries referred to the US embassy in Baghdad.



IO ASSESSMENT: IQATF will monitor for atmospherics on this SIGACT.



S2 ASSESSMENT: The lack of coordination on the part of these hikers, particularly after being forewarned, indicates an intent to agitate and create publicity regarding international policies on Iran. The leadership in Iran benefits as it focuses the Iranian population on a perceived external threat rather than internal dissension. Kurdish leaders remain concerned about international perceptions regarding security as they seek to increase investment in the KRG. Expect KRG leadership to intervene to return the 3 individuals and the Iranian government to accuse them of being spies. Additionally, KRG leadership may impose additional restrictions on private activities near the Iranian border.
