Airstrike Targets Enemy Safe House

F-16s Give The Gift That Keeps On Giving...

F-16 Fighting Falcons from the 510th Expeditionary Fighter Squadron dropped two Joint Direct Attack Munition bombs on an enemy safe house near AR RAMADI, Iraq, Dec. 27.

Operation Stocking Stuffer was launched to destroy an abandoned two-story house known to be a launching pad for attacks against coalition forces, according to a U.S. Central Command release. The house had been used on six different occasions to attack coalition forces and is located about two miles northwest of Khalidiyah.

An enlisted terminal attack controller coordinated the airstrike with the pilots, officials said. The house was known to harbor insurgents; also, there were improvised explosive device-making materials in the house that were destroyed in the attack, officials said.
