Mujahiden Destroy 2 US Armored vehicles in Iraq, Terminating All Troops Onboard 

Iraqi Mujahideen fighters ambushed two US armored vehicles in Tall ‘Afar, west of al-Mawsil in northern Iraq early on Thursday morning, September 7, 2006. 

Mujhideen armed with RPG7 rocket-propelled grenades and medium machine guns attacked two US armored vehicles, destroying both of them and killing or wounding all the American troops aboard. 

The Mijhideen quickly left the scene after the strike, but one of the fighters was wounded.

 US troops quickly imposed a curfew in the area where the attack occurred.  The curfew remained in force for two hours, during which time the Americans hauled the wreckage of the two vehicles away to the Tall ‘Afar train station, a facility that the Americans have occupied and turned into their local base.
