Iraqi forces, backed by tribal fighters, managed Saturday to liberate Alkhsfah village of Anbar province from Daesh control.
An Iraqi Defense Ministry's statement reported that a large number of terrorists, including Arabs and foreigners, were killed and arms were seized during heavy clashes with Daesh militants.
A video clip aired by the ministry showed army troops advancing to regain control of the village after air strikes were launched there.
Anbar province, which borders war-ravaged Syria, has been a major stronghold of Daesh elements and continues to be largely controlled by the terror group.
