Iraqi Joint Operations Command

A joint operation by American and Iraqi forces killed 15 members of the Islamic State group in western Iraq, US Central Command (CENTCOM) said Friday.

The Iraqi military joint operations command has received a letter from the U.S. army concerning a possible withdrawal of its troops from the country, Prime Minister Adel Abdul Mahdi said on Tuesday.

A suicide bomber killed two Iraqi generals today in Anbar province, a key battleground against the Islamic State group, as the jihadists made gains in northern Syria.

Iraqi security forces entered the University of Anbar in southern Ramadi today and clashed with Islamic State militants inside the compound, the joint operations command said in a statement broadcast on state television.

New Pentagon chief Ashton Carter will hold talks today in Kuwait with top US commanders and diplomats to discuss the war effort against the Islamic State jihadist group, officials said.

Over 41 people were killed and 30 others injured across Iraq in separate insurgent attacks that mainly targeted security forces, police said Sunday.
