Coalition aircraft have been dropping leaflets urging Iraqi military forces not to take an offensive posture

Central Command Area of Responsibility (Mar. 09, 2003) Coalition aircraft have been dropping leaflets urging Iraqi military forces not to take an offensive posture. Leaflets also lay out the consequences of such actions in an effort to ensure local civilian populations are properly informed. Each leaflet is typically 3-by-6 inches in size, written in Arabic, and are dropped in fiberglass containers that explode over designated areas to increase scatter and drift to the ground. This example shown is the Arabic version, with the English translation provided for information purposes. DOD Graphic Illustration. File# 030309-D-0000X-001
