Huge explosions shook Fallujah after dark Tuesday as new fighting erupted, and a US AC-130 gunship bombed targets in the city.
The AC-130 fired its heavy guns into the northern part of Fallujah, the area where a battle broke out the night before in the Jolan neighborhood. US officials said earlier this week that Iraqi fighters in the city have until Tuesday to disarm.
One Marine was killed Monday night during the fighting in Jolan, a poor district where Sunni fighters are concentrated. (Albawaba.com)
