| (VOI) -- A policeman was killed and seven others wounded in two separate blasts that targeted two Iraqi police patrols in al-Anbar, a police source in the province said on Saturday. "An improvised explosive device went off today near an Iraqi police patrol very close to the H3 refinery west of Haditha city, (250 km) west of Baghdad, killing one policeman and injuring three others," the source told Aswat al-Iraq -- Voices of Iraq -- (VOI) on customary condition of anonymity out of security concerns. Meanwhile, the same source said that a hand grenade today targeted a police patrol in al-Debes area, central Hit city, wounding four men, including an officer in the city police. Anbar, whose capital is Ramadi, lies 110 km west of Baghdad. |
