UK Troops Head Toward Baghdad

HeadlineOct 28, 2004

In other Iraq news some 800 British forces are heading to Baghdad at the request of the U.S. to help fight the Iraqi resistance. By patrolling parts of Baghdad, the British troops will allow some U.S. forces to leave that area to fight in Fallujah. Also today, Al Jazeera aired a new video that showed a Polish woman who allegedly has been taken hostage in Iraq. The Iraqi group that seized her demanded the release of all Iraqi female prisoners and for Polish troops to leave Iraq.
