Iraq: Iraqi army re-take Baghdadi town from Islamic State (IS) jihadists in Anbar province
The Provincial Council of Anbar Province has announced that Iraqi security forces, tribal militants and local forces have freed the town of Baghdadi, west of Rummadi but warned that Islamic State (IS) has gathered insurgents to re-attack the town.
Council member Taha Abdulghani told Iraqi local media that Baghdadi is mostly under the control of the Iraqi army, aside from some hidden IS sniper positions.
He insisted that the whole town would be cleared of jihadists soon and accused the federal government of failing to arm tribal groups in the area.
