Armenia on Sunday sent a second contingent of troops to serve in the
U.S.-led coalition in Iraq, the Defense Ministry said.

The 46 servicemen, who were to spend two weeks in Kuwait before
assuming duty in Iraq, were to rotate in for a group deployed in
January, said ministry spokesman Seyran Shakhsuvarian.

They include a squad of 30 drivers, 10 sappers, three doctors, a
communications officer and two commanders, and will serve under Polish
command.
