 *On November 8, 2004, a force of over 6,000+\- U.S. and 1300+\- Iraqi troops began a concentrated assault on Fallujah with air strikes, artillery, armor, and infantry.  They seized the rail yards North of the city, and pushed into the city simultaneously from the North, West and Southeast, taking control of the volatile Jolan and Askari districts.  Rebel resistance was not as strong as expected, although some rebels fought very hard as they fell back.  By nightfall on November 9, 2004, the U.S. troops had reached the heart of the city.  U.S. military officials stated that 1,000 to 6,000 insurgents were believed to be in the city, but they did not appear to be well-organized, and fought in small groups, of three to 25.  Many insurgents were believed to have slipped away amid widespread reports that the U.S. offensive was coming.  During the assault, U.S. and Iraqi soldiers endured sniper fire and destroyed booby traps, but not as many as anticipated.  Ten U.S. troops were killed in the fighting and 22 wounded in the first two days of fighting.  Insurgent casualty numbers were estimated at 85 to 90 killed or wounded.  Several more days of fighting were anticipated as U.S. and Iraqi troops conducted house-to-house searches for weapons, booby traps, and insurgents.
-*The US armed forces used [[White_phosphorus_incendiary|white phosphorus]] grenades and/or artillery shells. Doctors working inside Fallujah report seeing melted corpses of suspected insurgents. The use of WP ammunition was confirmed from various independent sources, including US troops who had suffered WP burns due to 'friendly fire'.  New photographic evidence regarding the usage of incendiary weapons has been released by the Italian public service broadcaster [[RAI]], including the footage of an helicopter massively showering white phosphorus over a zone of the city, and the severely burnt and molten corpses of the victims of these attacks (including babies).
