(9 Jul 2016) Iraqi troops, supported by Shiite militia, pushed Islamic State group fighters out of the villages of Albu Risha and Tway on Friday.
Both villages are located north of Ramadi, which was liberated from Islamic State militants in December last year.
Over the past year, Iraqi forces backed by US-led airstrikes have city-by-city regained large parts of that territory - though the biggest prize, Iraq's second largest city, Mosul, and surrounding territory in the north, remains in IS control, liked to its holdings in neighbouring Syria.
