On July 22, 2003, Saddam Hussein and Saddam Hussein were killed by the US military in Mosul
On July 22, 2003 (June 23, 2003 in the lunar calendar), two sons of Iraqi President Saddam Hussein were killed by US troops in Mosul. July 22, 2003 - Uday and Qusay, two sons of former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, were killed by US troops in Mosul. "We are sure that Uday and Qusay have been killed," Sanchez said at an impromptu news conference. He said that the US 101st Airborne Division received information from a resident of Mosul on the 21st night that Saddam's two sons were hiding in a luxury villa in the Farah district of the city. At noon on the 22nd, about 200 US soldiers surrounded the villa and launched an attack. When the Americans approached the villa, the men inside opened fire with light weapons and resisted stubbornly, and the exchange of fire lasted for more than six hours. Finally, the Americans stormed the villa and carried out four bodies from inside. "From the appearance of the bodies, it can be identified as Uday and Qusay. In addition, it can be determined from several other aspects that it is the two of them." The identities of the other two bodies have not yet been determined, he said. Witnesses said one of the other two was likely Uday's 14-year-old son and the other was his bodyguard. The US military has issued a bounty for the capture of Saddam and his two sons, promising that those who provide clues that can lead to the capture or killing of Saddam will receive a reward of $25 million, while those who provide clues that can lead to the capture or killing of Uday and Qusai will each receive a reward of $15 million. When asked by reporters about this, Sanchez said that the US military will pay the bounty to those who provide clues. Comments: Many acts of injustice, long overdue killing
