Al Waleed border crossing

Al-Waleed border crossing (Arabic: منفذ الوليد الحدودي, romanized: Menfath al-Waleed al-Hudoodi) is one of three official border crossings between Iraq and Syria. It is located in the Ar-Rutba District of the Al-Anbar Governorate in western Iraq, close to the northeasternmost point of Jordan in the Syrian Desert. It serves as the main border checkpoint on the highway between Damascus and Baghdad. The al-Waleed checkpoint is close to al-Tanf on the Syrian side of the border in the Homs Governorate. The Al-Waleed Palestinian refugee camp is nearby.
