The Current Situation in Anbar, Resultant Forced Displacement, IOM Iraq Response and Additional Capacity The Current Situation in Anbar, Resultant Forced Displacement, IOM Iraq Response and Additional Capacity Situation Update, Issue # 14 11th March 2014 Prepared by IOM Iraq and based on information provided by IOM Iraq Rapid Assessment and Response Teams (RARTs) and through UNCT/MoMD sources Situation Summary: The total number of IDP families displaced within Anbar has increased from 29,203 to 39,829 (i.e. 10,626 additional IDP families, representing approximately 63,756 individuals) since the last update. This represents a 36% increase between the 25th February and the 7th March; Whilst numbers of IDP families located in the districts of Fallujah and Ramadi have remained static, reports from the Mission’s RART in Anbar indicate that ongoing clashes in Fallujah, and heavy fighting in Ramadi, have led to particularly high levels of displacement to the north, north-west and west of the governorate. The district of Al- Qa’im, in the north-west, and close to the Iraq/Syria border, has seen a 35% increase since the 25th February (the number of families increasing from 1,259 to 1,705). Similar levels have been seen in the districts of Ra’ua (40% increase) and Ana (18% increase) in the north of the governorate. However, the most extreme increases in displacement have been to the district of Al-Rutba (53% increase), located on the main route west from Ramadi towards the Syrian and Saudi borders, and to the districts of Heet (224% increase) and Haditha (91% increase), located on the route north-west from Ramadi in the direction of Ra’ua and Ana mentioned above. Displacement figures in Al-Rutba, Heet and Haditha can be seen in the below table: District # of IDP # of IDP Increase in # Increase in % increase in families on families on of families approximate IDP families the 25th the 7th # of February, March, 2014 individuals 2014 Al-Rutba 1,375 2,110 735 4,410 53% Heet 3,550 11,501 7,951 47,706 224% Haditha 1,090 2,085 995 5,970 91% Displacement figures for Kirkuk have increased by 500, and there is now an extra district ‘Daquq’ in which 65 families displaced from Anbar are located; Whilst the number of IDP families displaced from Anbar to Erbil has remained static since the last update, displacement to Dohuk has increased from 344 families to 395 families, representing a total increase of approximately 306 individuals. In Sulaymaniyah, the total number of families displaced from Anbar has risen from 1,874 to 2,316 families, a total increase of 442 representing approximately 2,652 individuals; The total number of Non-Food-Item (NFI) kits distributed by IOM Iraq RARTs since the Mission’s response began on the 5th January has now reached 5,205 (representing approximately 31,230 individual recipients).

The figures in this appendix have also been obtained by various IOM RARTs, from local authorities and/or local councils, community leaders, mosques and/or religion leaders (increased displacement occurring since the last report is highlighted in yellow, whilst a reduction in the number of displaced families in a particular location is indicated in blue) Response: The total number of NFIs distributed by IOM Iraq RARTs since the Mission’s response began on the 5th January has now reached 5,205 (representing approximately 31,230 individual recipients). The latest distributions were carried out by the Anbar, Babylon, Baghdad, Kirkuk, Ninewa and Salah Al-Din RARTs; On the 3rd March, the Babylon RART successfully distributed NFI kits to 50 IDP families displaced from Anbar to Babylon City Centre. On the same day, the Kirkuk RART delivered 200 NFIs to vulnerable IDP families displaced from Anbar to Hay Al-Uruba. The distribution was implemented in coordination with the Kirkuk Governor’s Office, the Provincial Council, the Ministry of Migration and Displacement (MoMD) and UNHCR; On the 4th March, The Anbar RART distributed 240 NFIs to the village of Kubisa within the district of Heet. The same team then delivered a further 260 NFIs to vulnerable IDP families in Heet City Centre. To date, 1,930 NFIs have been delivered within the governorate of Anbar, benefitting approximately 11,580 individuals located within the districts of Fallujah, Ramadi, Al-Karma, Al-Saqlawiyah, and Heet; 2 | P a g e On the 5th March, the RART in Ninewa successfully distributed 125 NFIs to IDP families displaced from Anbar to the city of Mosul.

  • Written Testimony for HB 437 – Marine Sergeant David R Christoff Memorial Highway David Volunteered for Duty the Day After
    Written Testimony for HB 437 – Marine Sergeant David R Christoff Memorial Highway David volunteered for duty the day after the September 11, 2001 (9/11) attack on the World Trade Centers in New York City; he was motivated by the desire to protect the freedom and safety of those he loved. On February 22, 2002 he graduated from the Marine Corps Recruit Depot Parris Island as a Private First Class. He attended the School of Infantry at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina and was then assigned with the 1st Battalion, 3rd Marines, Bravo Company at Marine Corps Base Hawaii. David was promoted to Sergeant on October 1, 2004 and on his first deployment he served as Squad Leader in the second Battle of Fallujah code name “Operation Phantom Fury” which is considered to be the bloodiest battle of the Iraq war. After David returned from this deployment in March of 2005, he volunteered to transfer to the 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marines, Kilo Company because he felt there was still much work to be done in Iraq and he wanted to teach the younger Marines the hard lessons he had learned during his previous deployment. He served as Platoon Sergeant starting September 12, 2005 and was deployed to Haqlaniyah, Iraq on March 11, 2006. Upon returning from a foot patrol on May 22, 2006 David was killed by an improvised explosive device. He was laid to rest along with many other fallen heroes at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington, Virginia. During his 5 years he had the opportunity to serve, he made a lifetime of impressions on those he served with, many of whom have relayed stories of his courage, compassion and leadership, attributes he displayed on a daily basis.

WHITLEY SMSgt, USAF Colonel, USAF I Historian Commander Office of History Headquarters 37th Fighter Wing Twelfth Air Force Tactical Air Command Preface This unclassified account of the 37th Tactical Fighter Wing's accomplishments during Operations DESERT SHIELD and DESERT STORM was prepared to permit members of the "Team Stealth" community to reflect with pride on their contribu­ tion to sustained world peace. They proved their mettle in battle and have earned the title of American warrior. It is a testament to their love for country and their willingness to sacrifice for the ideals they defend every day of their lives. The peoples of the United States and the entire Free World are forever in their debt. Nighthawks Over Iraq is based entirely on the contingency historical reports developed by SMSgt Phil Myers during his visit to Saudi Arabia as historian of the 37th Tactical Fighter Wing and the mission tally sheets developed by the wing's operations network. 2 On 5 October 1989, the 37th Tactical Fighter Wing (TFW) relocated to Tonopah Test Range, Nevada, to take up the role as the Air Force's only Stealth Fighter unit.

    Lecture 1 MSc Transportation Engineering Railroad Engineering College of Engineering University of Babylon Introduction to Railway Engineering • Railway Mode Of Transport • Early Beginnings • Railways in Iraq Lecturer : Prof. Dr. Hussein A. Ewadh 2017-2018 • Classification Schemes for Transportation Engineering Railways: Introduction • In this mode of transport, all vehicles use rail tracks to move from one point to another. • Vehicles consist of a long train of coaches attached to a locomotive. • The coaches and the locomotive have steel wheels which run on steel rail tracks. • The locomotive either uses diesel or use electricity as fuel (locomotives which run on coal are hardly used these days). • Since the rail tracks provide a dedicated right-of-way for the train services, these are good for high speed transit facilities. • Trains stop at pre-specified locations called stations. Important aspects related to the railway mode of transport • Safe and efficient operation and control of rail traffic. • Layout of rail tracks. • Structural design of the subgrade on which rail tracks run. • Planning of stations or terminals for railway vehicles. Early Beginnings • By the time steam locomotives came on the scene, in the early nineteenth century, wrought iron rails and later steel rails were developed which were strong enough to support these heavy axle loads without assistance from longitudinal timbers. • In essence the track itself, together with its supports, had and still has the basic function of safely transmitting the loads and forces imposed by passing trains to the ground beneath. • Various other civil engineering skills were also involved in the construction of early railways. These included the building of bridges, tunnels and gravity walls as well as extensive earthworks and drainage.

All further dissemination and reproduction must be done with the written permission of the CSIS Cordesman: Iraq’s Evolving Insurgency 6/22/06 Page ii Executive Summary Later Coalition reporting has shown that the insurgency managed to increase the average number of weekly attacks during the period from around 470 in mid-2005 to 620 in May 2006, and succeeded in triggering a steady increase in civil violence and sectarian and ethnic conflict. While Coalition casualties averaged under 20 per day from the spring of 2005 to the spring of 2006, even a partial count of Iraqi casualties rose from less than 60 per day during February 2005 to February 2006 to 78 per day during February though May 2006.1 The quarterly reports that the Department of Defense issued to Congress do not seem to count many low-level incidents and types of civil violence.2 They omit coverage of major problem areas like Arab-Kurdish ethnic violence in the Kirkuk area, and Shi'ite violence in the Basra area. They still, however, report serious increases in civil conflict and the fact that most Iraqis came to see Shi'ite and Kurdish militias as a growing threat to security by the spring of 2006.3 Even the Coalition's partial count of Iraqi civilian casualties showed an increase from 10% of its national total in January 2006 to 13% in March 2006, and from 10% to 18% in Baghdad.

  • Karstification and Related Problems, Examples from Iraq ﻌﺭﺍﻕ ، ﺃﻤﺜﻠﺔ ﻤﻥ ﺍﻝ ﺍﻝﻤﺭﺍﻓﻘﺔ
    Iraqi Bulletin of Geology and Mining Vol.3, No.2, 2007 p 1 −−− 12 KARSTIFICATION AND RELATED PROBLEMS, EXAMPLES FROM IRAQ Varoujan K. Sissakian * and Hala A. Al-Mousawi ** ABSTRACT Karstification is a common phenomenon in different parts of Iraq, where large areas are involved, causing severe damages to infrastructures and occasionally life losses. The main Karstified rocks are limestone and gypsum. The latter is restricted to the Fat`ha Formation, which covers considerable parts of Iraq, especially in the Al-Jazira vicinity. Whereas, the former is exposed in different formations that are exposed almost every where. Among the involved formations are Euphrates, Anah, Dammam, Ratgah, Pilaspi, Aqra – Bekhme, Qamchuqa… etc. Among Quaternary deposits, the gypcrete is another potential deposits that are highly karstified after being in contact, shortly, by water. The gypcrete also covers considerable parts in Iraq. Beside the economic lost caused due to karstification, some death causalities are also recorded. Moreover, in the Western Desert, karstification plays big role in miss leading the stratigraphic position of different horizons within different Jurassic and Cretaceous formations, making them in very complex situation, although they are in horizontal (not folded) position. ﺍﻝﺘﺨﺴﻔﺎﺕ ﻭﺍﻝﻤﺸﺎﻜل ﺍﻝﻤﺭﺍﻓﻘﺔ ﻝﻬﺎ ، ﺃﻤﺜﻠﺔ ﻤﻥ ﺍﻝ ﻌﺭﺍﻕ ﻓﺎﺭﻭﺠﺎﻥ ﺨﺎﺠﻴﻙ ﺴﻴﺴﺎﻜﻴﺎﻥ ﻭ ﻫﺎﻝﺔ ﻋﻁﺎ ﺍﻝﻤﻭﺴﻭﻱ ﺍﻝﻤﺴﺘﺨﻠﺹ ﺇ ﻥ ﺍﻝﺘﺨﺴﻔﺎﺕ ﻅﺎﻫﺭﺓ ﻤﻌﺭﻭﻓﺔ ﻓﻲ ﺍﻝﻌﺭﺍﻕ ، ﻭﺘﺘﺄﺜﺭ ﻤﻨﺎﻁﻕ ﻜﺒﻴﺭﺓ ﺒﻬﺫﻩ ﺍﻝﻅﺎﻫﺭﺓ ﻭﺘﺴﺒﺏ ﻤﺸﺎﻜل ﻭﺨﺴﺎﺌﺭ ﻤﺎﺩﻴﺔ ﻜﺒﻴﺭﺓ ﻭ ﺨﺴﺎﺌﺭ ﻓﻲ ﺍﻷﺭﻭﺍﺡ ﺃﻴﻀﺎ . ﺃﻥ ﺍﻝﺼﺨﻭﺭ ﺍﻝﺭﺌﻴﺴﻴﺔ ﺍﻝﻤﺘﺄﺜﺭﺓ ﺒﺎﻝﺘﺨﺴﻑ ﻫﻲ ﺍﻝﻜﻠﺴﻴﺔ ﻭﺍﻝﺠﺒﺴﻴﺔ . ﻭﺍﻥ ﺍﻷﺨﻴﺭﺓ ﺘ ﻜﻭﻥ ﻤﻭﺠﻭﺩﺓ ﺒﺸﻜل ﻜﺒﻴﺭ ﻓﻲ ﺘﻜﻭﻴﻥ ﺍﻝﻔﺘﺤﺔ ﻭﺍﻝﺫﻱ ﻴﻐﻁﻲ ﻤﻨﺎﻁﻕ ﻭﺍﺴﻌﺔ ﻤﻥ ﺍﻝﻌﺭﺍﻕ . ﺒﻴﻨﻤﺎ ﺘﺘﻜﺸﻑ ﺍﻝﺼﺨﻭﺭ ﺍﻝﻜﻠﺴﻴﺔ ﻓﻲ ﻤﻨﺎﻁﻕ ﻋﺩﻴﺩﺓ ﻓﻲ ﺍﻝﻌﺭﺍﻕ ﻭﻀﻤﻥ ﺘﻜﻭﻴﻨﺎﺕ ﺠﻴﻭﻝﻭﺠﻴﺔ ﻤﺨﺘﻠﻔﺔ ﻤﺜل ﺍﻝﻔﺭﺍﺕ، ﻋﻨﺔ، ﺍﻝﺩﻤﺎﻡ ، ﺍﻝﺭﻁﻜﺔ، ﺒﻴﻼﺴﺒﻲ، ﻋﻘﺭﺓ – ﺒﺨﻤﺔ ، ﻗﻤﺠﻭﻗﺔ ..
