When there was no compliance, they began shooting the demonstrators. In the end, a total of 13 were killed, the number comprised not only of demonstrators but people shopping and walking on the sidewalks.
The mosque in Al-Adamiyah was shot by the Americans....Women have been detained as well...grabbed the women, beaten them, removed their Hijab..Collective punishment is being practiced here on a daily basis...they have seen soldiers steal money and gold from homes...five men were taken under a nearby bridge and executed by the Americans...detaining all the young men from every home they raid...haven’t been released, and the families are unable to find them or contact them...US troops planting bombs, then coming back later to act as if they are defusing them, as if to protect the people from the resistance fighters....also watched them placing fake plastic guns on the ground. Then when people pick them up they explode like a small bomb. Why are they doing this?”
