(4 Apr 2016) A suicide bomber rammed his explosives-laden car into a security checkpoint in Baghdad's northeastern suburb of Sadr al-Qanat, killing six troops and wounding 13 others on Monday.
The attack comes as the Islamic State group has lost ground on a number of fronts in Syria and Iraq, where it governs a self-styled Islamic caliphate.
Iraqi forces took the northern edge of the Islamic State-held town of Hit, west of Baghdad, on Sunday but the troops' progress has been slowed by hundreds of roadside bombs and efforts to safeguard thousands of civilians trapped inside the town.
