U.S. military officials in Iraq say American soldiers and Iraqi police have detained more than 50 people during raids in search of insurgents around the city of Baquba, north of Baghdad.
A statement Sunday says a number of weapons were also found during Saturday's raids, around the towns of Buhriz and Hib Hib.
Elsewhere Saturday, at least 10 Iraqis and a U.S. Marine were killed in several insurgent attacks across the country.
In another development, Dinesh Dharmendra Rajaratnam, a Sri Lankan truck driver set free by Iraqi militants last week after he was kidnapped in October, returned home Sunday, where he was reunited with his family.
