Operation Red Dawn was a military operation launched by the US Army, supported by the CIA and SOCOM, to capture Saddam Hussein, the former Iraqi dictator, who was hiding in a small underground bunker in the town of Ad-Dawr, near Tikrit, Iraq. The operation took place on December 13, 2003, in the midst of the ongoing war in Iraq. The setting for the operation was a rural area of northern Iraq characterized by harsh desert terrain, rugged mountains, and dense vegetation. The bunker where Saddam Hussein was hiding was well camouflaged and fortified, making it a difficult target to locate and attack. The operation included a coordinated effort by special operations teams, helicopters, and ground forces, and involved a high degree of secrecy and precision to avoid alerting Hussein's supporters and to minimize casualties. The success of Operation Red Dawn was a significant victory for the US military and a symbolic victory in the war against terrorism.
