Self-styled Islamic State terrorists have killed at least seven Iraqi soldiers and wounded 16 others in a series of attacks in the country’s Anbar Province, security sources said. Wednesday’s attacks targeted several positions held by Iraqi forces in Anbar Province, west of Baghdad, the sources added, Al Jazeera reported. Iraqi forces were bringing reinforcements to the area under attack, near the city of Ramadi, as clashes continued several hours after the IS militants attacked the troops with suicide car bombs, mortars and machine guns. IS were driven out from Ramadi in late 2015 but a low-intensity guerrilla war has continued in the region.
