Cavalry pushes into Iraq
Welsh Cavalry soldiers are reported to be rolling toward the key town of Basra after a successful wave of night-time attacks in southern Iraq. Scimitar tanks of the Queen’s Dragoon Guards - the largely Welsh tank regiment - moved ahead of Royal Marines to secure a beachhead on the coast of the Gulf close to Iran.
They were said on Friday to be spearheading a route north toward Basra, from where troops may push further to Baghdad.
About 2,000 service men and women from Wales are stationed in the region, providing a range of frontline and back-up expertise as part of the US-led coalition to oust the Iraqi regime.
