10 Tuesday, February 26, 1991 / University Daily Kansan Iraqi missile strikes barracks, kills 27 U.S. soldiers Worst Scud attack of war leaves 98 soldiers wounded, all accounted for The Associated Press DAHRAIN, Saudi Arabia — In the worst Seud attack of the Persian Gulf War, an Iraq missile yesterday attacked 200 houses housing about 1001 U.S. soldiers. The U.S. military said that 27 military personnel were killed and that 98 were wounded. All personnel from the barracks have been accounted for. Baghdad radio hailed the attack, saying the missile struck "the cow-raid traitors who mortgage the land and turn Arab youth into shields of flesh." Saddam Hussein's troops have hurled dozens of missiles at Israel and Saudi Arabia since the gulf war began Jan. 17, but most have been knocked out by U.S. supplied Patriot defense missiles. The attack exploded in the sky over Dhahran, but it was unclear whether it hit the incoming Scud. The attack came about 8:30 p.m., while some of the soldiers were eating dinner and after others apparently had gone to bed or were relaxing. Many survivors were in civilian clothes — some in sweatsuits or gym shorts. Hours later, the U.S. military brought in lights, a backhoe and a team of engineers to clear the rubble. Soldiers arrived, wearing heavy gloves, to search the ruined building that was expected to last all night. After the blast, a chaplain moved among the survivors, consoling them. Some soldiers appeared to be in shock and despair, other in anguish. Many were crying, Some survivors carried gas masks around their waists, but there was no indication Saddam had made good on his threat to arm a Scud missile with a chemical warhead. A convoy of at least two dozen ambulances carried away the wounded, and at least two medical evacuation helicopters landed near the wrecked building. The Central Command said the injured were in the 89th Evacuation Hospital and the Air Transportable Clinic at Dhahram. The Central Command said it appeared the Scud may have broken up in flight, scattering debris that hit the barracks. Initially, military officials said they had no confirmed figures on the number of dead. But early today, the Central Command issued a statement saying military personnel had been killed and wounded. Trevor Harrison, who lives near the barracks, said he heard the explosion and rushed out and saw the smoldering ruins. He said the soldiers apparently were eating dinner when the missile hit. The building was a corrugated metal warehouse that had been converted into temporary housing for the University visitor and transportation corps units. Iraq also launched a Seud missile at the island state of Bahrain last night, but it was knocked from the sky by a Patriot missile. Since the start of the war, Iraq repeatedly has fired Scud missiles at Dhahran, site of the main allied military base, Riyadh and at other sites in the desert kingdom. Most of the bombs intercepted by Patriot missiles, although they died and 85 were injured in the previous attacks on Saudi Arabia. Iraq also has fired Scud missiles at Israel, where the rockets have killed two people and injured more than 230. Patriot missiles have intercepted some of the Scuds launched at the Jewish state.
