Australia Says Southern Iraq Mission Complete, Troops to Leave <br />
By Gemma Daley<br />
Feb. 20 (Bloomberg) -- Australian troops in southern Iraq have completed their mission and will begin returning home in the middle of the year, the military said today. <br />
``We have achieved our objectives in southern Iraq,'' Air Chief Marshal Angus Houston, the head of the Australian Defence Force, told a parliamentary committee hearing in Canberra. ``It's time for us to leave.'' <br />
Australia has about 1,500 soldiers in Iraq serving with U.S.-led coalition forces trying to quell an insurgency and sectarian violence. <br />
