Al-Qaeda claims Abu Ghraib and Taji mass jailbreaks

BBC News - Al-Qaeda claims Abu Ghraib and Taji mass jailbreaks
"In an online statement, al-Qaeda said Sunday's attack was the final one in a campaign aimed at freeing inmates.
At least 20 security guards died when gunmen stormed the Abu Ghraib and Taji jails near Baghdad.
Abu Ghraib gained global notoriety in 2004 when images were released showing US guards abusing Iraqi detainees.
Iraqi officials had previously tortured regime opponents in Abu Ghraib during Saddam Hussein's rule."
