  • Heavy fighting took place earlier on Thursday in a northern quarter of the city near a mosque where Saddam Hussein was rumoured to be hiding. US marines are reported to have searched the building and tunnels running underneath it
  • Looting has continued, with people ransacking buildings and taking away anything they can carry. The German embassy, the French cultural centre, a bank and the offices of Iraqi Airways have all be overrun by looters.
