STORYLINE:
The destroyer USS John S. McCain fired its first missiles in the war on Iraq on
Thursday night.
Several low flying Tomahawk guided missiles were successfully launched from the
ship in the second night of the operation.
Meanwhile a commander of one of the five US aircraft carriers in the Gulf has
confirmed that warplanes under his command flew 24 bombing missions overnight on
Wednesday striking military targets in Iraq.
The strikes were separate from the more than 40 Tomahawk missiles launched at
strategic targets near Baghdad earlier on Thursday, said Rear Admiral Barry
Costello, commander of the USS Constellation.
Costello also said that EA-6B Prowler planes - which are able to block radar
transmissions - launched from the Constellation overnight to support F1-17
Stealth Bombers over Iraq.
This comes as a new wave of jets took off for unknown targets from the USS
Constellation on Thursday night, beginning a second night of air attacks against
Iraq.
On board another aircraft carrier in the region, the USS Kitty Hawk, the numbers
of sorties flown in the last 24 hours has increased by 50% in last 24 hours.
But US Vice Admiral Matt Moffatt insists that everything is being done to
prevent any civilians being hurt.
Each of the aircraft carriers has more than 70 warplanes.

STORYLINE:
A US Marine helicopter crashed in Kuwait on Friday, killing the eight British
and four American soldiers aboard, military officials said.
Officials said the cause of the crash was under investigation, adding that
hostile fire had not been reported in the area.
Earlier, US officials had said 12 Britons and four Americans had died.
The CH-46 Sea Knight helicopter was assigned to the 1st Marine Expeditionary
Force.
It crashed at 00:37 GMT Friday morning in Kuwait - about 9 miles (15 kilometers)
away from the border with Iraq, military officials said.
Lt. Col. Ben Curry, a British Royal Marines spokesman, said the crash occurred
as troops were being deployed to seize oil fields on the Al Faw peninsula in
southern Iraq. Otherwise the operation had been a success, he added.
Curry said the "aim of the assault was to capture intact an oil pumping station
and pipeline valve in order to prevent their destruction by Iraqi forces and the
subsequent environmental pollution of the Persian Gulf."
"Iraqi resistance has been light and their have been enemy casualties and
prisoners," he added.
Group Capt. Al Lockwood, spokesman for British forces in the Gulf, also said the
helicopter had not been shot down.
Britain's foreign secretary, Jack Straw, who was in Brussels, described the
crash as an "accident" and expressed condolences to the families of the soldiers
killed.
The Marines use the Sea Knight, a bus-like helicopter with two large rotors, to
fly troops from ships at sea or base camps to forward positions.
The Navy and Marines grounded all 291 Sea Knight helicopters in August after an
inspection of one helicopter in North Carolina found a crack in a rotor
assembly. A Marine Corps CH-46 crashed in 2001, killing three Marines and
injuring two.

you just try and keep away from it," he said.
Another pilot said he was flying into southern Iraq when a surface to air
missile was launched at him, but it missed.
There were no reported casualties from the operation.

STORYLINE:
US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said the US military operation in the Gulf
was "going very well" and expressed his support for the work of the American
troops late on Thursday.
Americans pursued communications with Iraqis aimed at surrender or a coup
Rumsfeld said after briefing the US House of Representatives on developments.
He said the communications included Iraq's elite Republican Guard and he was
optimistic that it was still possible to unseat Saddam Hussein's regime without
a massive US attack.
American and British combat units rumbled across the desert into Iraq from the
south and bombed limited targets in Baghdad. But military commanders withheld
the massive onslaught that would signal all-out
war as U.S. officials tried to talk the Iraqi regime into giving up.

STORYLINE:
European Union leaders, meeting in a sombre mood on Friday as war in Iraq
highlighted their deep divisions, mapped out a limited role to help Iraq recover
from years of dictatorship and conflict.
Late on Thursday, the 15 leaders agreed on the need to U-R-G-E-N-Tly address the
humanitarian needs of the Iraqi people, offered to support the creation of
representative government and urged the United Nations be given a, "central role
during and after the current crisis".
There was not a word in the EU statement on the rights or wrongs of the US-led
war which tore European opinion apart for weeks before the outbreak of
hostilities.
Those differences were evident, most notably between the anti-war French and the
British, the only EU nation participating actively in the attack on Iraq.
After weeks of diplomatic barbs and harsh criticism, British Prime Minister Tony
Blair and French President Jacques Chirac shook hands at the summit, aides said.
However, they were not seen on camera together.
The Iraq issue has split the EU as Spain, Italy, Denmark, the Netherlands and
Portugal backed Britain's pro-American stance, while others lined up with France
and Germany in opposing war.

STORY
Police seized two vials with traces of the highly toxic poison ricin from a
locker at a Paris train station this week, as it heightened security against
terrorism during the US-led campaign in Iraq.
The containers were removed from the Gare de Lyon station on Monday after police
were informed of their presence by officials from SNCF, the state-run train
authority, a ministry statement said.
In the locker, agents found two vials of powder, a bottle of liquid and two
other vials also with liquid.
Tests showed the last two vials "contained traces of ricin in a mixture which
has been proven to be a very toxic poison," the statement said.
Ricin, which is derived from the castor bean plant, can kill within days. There
is no antidote or treatment.
It has been linked in the past to al-Qaida and Iraq.
