To the west in Fallujah. meanwhile, Iraqi security forces and civil ians who fled days of street fighting with Marines began to return Tuesday in a critical test of an agreement between U. S. officials and local leaders to fend off an all-out assault by American forces. All of those killed or injured in the mortar attack on the U.S.-run prison were security detainees, said Col. Jill Morgenthaler. meaning they were held for suspected involvement in the anti-U.S. insur gency or remnants of Saddam Hussein’s ousted Baathist regime. Twenty-five of the prisoners were flown by helicopter for emergency medical treatment. Morgenthaler said. There were no reports that any of the casualties were prominent members of Saddam’s regime. “This isn’t the first time that we have seen this kind of attack. We don’t know if they are trying to inspire an uprising or a prison break,” Brig. Gen. Mark Kimmitt told Associated Press Radio. It was the heaviest mortar barrage against the prison. Insurgents regularly fire on soldiers around the site — an American soldier was killed there two months ago — but shells have landed in the prison before.
