Further evidence continues to surface of the massive death and destruction wrought by the devastating Mujahideen attack on the American Falcon Forward Base in the southern Baghdad suburb of ad-Durah on Tuesday night, 10 October. On Friday, a source in the puppet "Joint American-Iraqi Coordination Office " said that 11 Iraq translators working for the US occupation troops had been killed in the explosion, the Al Basrah reported.
Relatives of the 11 translators had sent a letter of protest to the American embassy in which they objected to what they called the "lack of concern by American rescue teams for the lives of their relatives during the explosions ".
Six of the Iraqi translators were still listed as "missing" under the rubble, but that the others had been dug out late on Thursday night.
US sources still officially deny that there were any casualties when a Mujahideen rocket and mortar barrage caused the "mountain of US munitions" in the largest US arsenal in Iraq to explode for hours.
