US forces in Iraq have mounted a big overnight operation to try to rein in the activities of militiamen still loyal to the ousted Iraqi leader, Saddam Hussein. About 1,300 soldiers from the US army's 3rd Infantry Division backed by tanks and helicopters raided the town of Falluja, west of Baghdad. The troops were acting on intelligence that Iraqi militia fighters are based in the town and that weapons are being stockpiled there for use against US forces. They met no resistance and withdrew after three hours having made seven arrests. At about the same time, the Americans announced that the former commander of the Iraqi air force, Hamid Raja Shalah al-Tikriti was now in US custody - but it is unclear whether he was detained in Falluja.
