| Iraqi military lifts curfew in Anbar |
| 2009-02-04 |
| The Iraqi military on Tuesday lifted a curfew in Anbar a day after tribal shaikhs sent gunmen into the streets to protest what they claimed was vote rigging in last weekend's elections. Iraqi commander Major General Murdhi Mishhin said a vehicle ban has been lifted and there have been no reports of violence. Anbar was one of 14 of Iraq's 18 provinces where voters on Saturday chose members of ruling councils. |
