Iraq: Islamic State fighters attack army base near Ramadi
Fighters from so-called Islamic State (IS) have launched an attack on an Iraqi army base near Ramadi, just days after the city was recaptured by government troops.
A military spokesman said suicide car bombers and fighters wearing explosive belts took part in the attack.
The army fought back with the help of air strikes by the US-led coalition.
Iraq said it had “liberated” Ramadi from IS on Sunday. The jihadist group had held the major city since May.
