US and Iraqi forces have launched a joint offensive along the border with Syria involving about 3500 soldiers, the US military has said.

Fighters have captured the governor of Iraq's western al-Anbar province and told his family he will be released when US forces withdraw from al-Qaim, the site of a major US offensive against the followers of Iraq's most wanted fighter, Abu Musab al-Zarqawi.

Twenty Iraqis have been killed and 22 injured after US helicopters and heavy artillery bombed houses in al-Rummana village, north of al-Qaim city, Aljazeera reported.
