Hunt on for ZarqawiFALLUJAH, IRAQ, JULY 6 (AP) Ambulances raced to the eastern side of
Fallujah and residents sifted through the debris after a US missile attack
on a house in the al-Shuhdaa neighborhood of the city on Monday. The US military had no immediate comment on the blasts. US forces have hit the area with four air strikes since June 19, killing dozens. US air strikes have frequently targeted safehouses used by members of Jordanian militant Abu Musab Zarqawi's network. Al-Zarqawi, a Jordanian militant said to be connected to al-Qaida, is believed to be behind a series of coordinated attacks on security forces that killed 100 people only days before US forces handed over power to an Iraqi interim government. The US also believes Al-Zarqawi to be behind the beheading of two hostages, American Nicholas Berg and South Korean Kim Sun-il. US authorities on Wednesday increased the reward for information leading to his arrest from $10 million to $25 million.
