By Maher Chmaytelli and Kadhim Ajrash
Dec. 18 (Bloomberg) -- Iranian forces yesterday entered
Iraqi territory at dawn and occupied well number 4 in the East
Maysan oil field, Border Guard General Zafer Nazmi said.
The Iranian forces positioned tanks around the well, which
is in the al-Fakah region, 450 kilometers (280 miles) south of
Baghdad. The two neighbors have disputed the border of southeast
Iraq for decades.
