ANBAR Iraq (Reuters) - Gunmen seized an Iraqi-Syrian border post in Iraq's western Anbar province on Sunday, security sources said, a day after Sunni militants fighting the Baghdad government grabbed another border crossing further north.
Officials at the border post of al-Waleed fled after a relatively small number of militants in two cars fired into the air, a customs police source and an army source said. They did not say who was behind the attack. A government official who spoke on condition of anonymity blamed "terrorists".
