Iraqi security forces deployed to protect borders with Syria
2009-03-10
Aswat al-Iraq: A force from the emergency police was deployed in cooperation with the border guards to foster security in crossing points between Syria and Iraq, the deputy chief of the Anbar police said.
Nobody's said a word about him, but I suspect the current edition is Zarqawi is located just across the border and that the pipeline is opening up again.
"The forces were sent to strengthen the crossing points and to prevent infiltrators from entering Iraq after the Syrian troops withdraw on November 2, 2008, when the U.S. choppers shelled Albu Kamal region in Syria," Brigadier Mohamed Rashied told Aswat al-Iraq news agency. U.S. helicopters on November, 2, 2008 shelled Albu Kamal region on the borders with Iraq, killing eight persons.
