Iraqi police killed by car bomb
Eleven Iraqi special police commandos have been killed in a suicide car bombing at a checkpoint in Ramadi, west of Baghdad, officials say.

The US military said at least nine other police officers, two US soldiers and two civilians were injured in the attack on Thursday evening.

Checkpoints were set up at entrances to the town last month to try to clamp down on insurgents.

Ramadi, 110km (68 miles) from Baghdad, is a hotbed of the insurgency.
