We would like to inform the public that on Monday March 3rd 2003 an international group of 5 Human Shields composed of 2 Italians, 1 Sardinian, 1 British citizen and 1 Austrian have deployed to the Al-Mamoun Communication Centre in Baghdad.

Important services located in this building such as post and telegraph which are of vital importance for the population.

An air strike against this communication centre would endanger the lives of Iraqis as well as the international activists.
