Iraqi forces on Tuesday completed the recapture of the town of Dhuluiyah, parts of which had been held by the Islamic State jihadist group for months, commanders said.

Pro-government forces had pushed into the town, located 90km outside Baghdad, from the north two days earlier, fighting their way south.

"Forces from the army and the police and [militiamen] and tribal fighters succeeded today in regaining control of Dhuluiyah," an army major general told AFP.
