Iraqi Security Forces , backed by elements of the 24th Marine Expeditionary Unit , increased operations on 23 November 2004 in the south - central Iraqi town of Jabella . Operations , which started earlier in November , continued the campaign in the northern Babil province aimed at rooting out insurgent forces . The combined Iraqi - U . S . force captured 32 suspected insurgents , including a number of high - interest individuals , in a series of early - morning raids approximately 50 miles south of Baghdad . Jabella is among several cities and towns in the province that the Interim Iraqi Government , supported by the Multi - National Force s , are determined to return to the Iraqi people . Ongoing operations in the North Babil province involved more than 5 , 000 Iraqi , U . S . and British forces . As Iraqi Security Forces and their U . S . partners began liberating Fallujah earlier this month , insurgent activity intensified in northern Babil . Insurgent attacks rose in an apparent effort to divert attention from the high - profile battle west of Baghdad . Iraqi forces and Marines have maintained their own pressure , rounding up insurgents in daily raids , house - to - house searches and random vehicle checkpoints . They ' ve been aided by a British armored battle group — the 1st Battalion of the Black Watch Regiment .

It followed the many operations including the most intense combat since Vietnam . The closest that the 2nd Operation in Fallujah Operation Phantom Fury can be related to is " Hue City " during the Tet Offensive .
