The article covers highlights of activities all over Iraq, but the Iraqi raid is the top story. Troops of the Iraqi Army’s 8th Division conducted a raid near Jurf al-Sakher on March 25, 2005. The Iraqis detained 121 suspects and siezed 3 tons of TNT, "624 rifles, 250,000 light ammunition rounds, 22,000 medium rounds, 193 rocket-propelled-grenade launchers, 300 RPG rockets, 27 82-mm mortar tubes, and 155 82-mm mortar rounds." - I don't know what they mean by "light" vs. "medium" ammo; I assume it is mostly 7.62mm and 12.7mm, but maybe 5.45mm, 5.56mm, 9mm and 14.5mm as well.
