Apr 2 2003 >From James Lyons In Kuwait AN intense heatwave with temperatures up to 41C (106F) will hit coalition troops in Iraq at the weekend. The first searing heat of its kind this season will see temperatures hit 38C (100F) by Friday, and peak Sunday, experts said. But military officials do not expect the weather to hamper operations. Analyst Thomas Withington, of the Centre for Defence Studies, at King's College, London, said: "It is going to get very hot but the British troops are trained to fight in these conditions." Weather experts say sandstorms which recently hit the country are unlikely to recur. Yesterday Unicef, the UN children's charity, warned cases of cholera had been reported in Basra. About half the 1.3 million people in Iraq's second largest city are without food and water. Forwarded for your information.
