The arrival of some 500 Italian
soldiers to protect the Cesena-based Trevi Group's restructuring
work on the key Mosul Dam in Iraq has been scheduled for late
spring, either May or June, officials said Monday.
The contingent could be composed of the Garibaldi Brigade
bersaglieri with armoured vehicles, plus special forces, sappers
and air support, the sources said.
Reconnaissance and analysis of the area to be secured have
already been carried out.
Defence ministry plans to deploy the troops are at an
advanced stage.
