DOHA, Qatar March 23 —
The Arab satellite station Al-Jazeera aired footage Sunday of
interviews with what the station identified as captured American
prisoners, and also showed bodies in uniform in an Iraqi morgue that
it said were Americans.
The station said the prisoners were captured around
Nasiriyah.
In the interviews, two of the prisoners identified their unit
only as the 507th Maintenance.
