stuffed remains of
Dolly the sheep are for the first time displayed.[1]
Baghdad falls to coalition forces. American infantrymen seize deserted
Ba'ath Party ministries and pull down a huge iron statue of
Saddam Hussein at the
Firdos Square in front of the
Palestine Hotel, as a symbolic ending his autocratic rule of
Iraq. Baghdad citizens then dragged the severed head of the statue through the streets of the city. Dozens of people there cheer U.S. soldiers, according to BBC. Much looting of cars and buildings is seen in Baghdad and other cities as the government and police lost control.[2][3][4][5][6]
The fate of
Saddam Hussein remains unknown after a U.S.
B-1B bomber dropped four 2,000-pound bunker-busting bombs on a building where Hussein was thought to be meeting with his sons and senior aides on April 7. The bombs blew a 60-foot-deep crater in a residential neighborhood that is not under coalition control, refueling speculation about the
possible death of Saddam Hussein. British intelligence officials said that they believed Saddam left the targeted building just minutes before it was destroyed, and that he probably survived the attack.[7][8][9][10]
