Iraqi security forces in cooperation with volunteers managed to re-control large areas in Anbar province, after they were captured by the terrorist Daesh group, a high-level security source said.
Planes of the international alliance pounded a number of Daesh-controlled areas, killing dozens of militants, added the source.
Daesh group is seizing some 80 percent of Iraq's largest province of Anbar and is trying to surround Baghdad from its outer belt.
