Iraqi forces poised to enter main city of Fallujah after securing southern edge
Iraqi forces say they have secured the southern edge of the Islamic State group stronghold of Fallujah, two weeks after the launch of an operation to recapture the city.
Lieutenant General Abdel Wahab al-Saadi says his forces secured the largely agricultural southern neighbourhood of Naymiyah, under cover of US-led coalition air strikes, and are poised to enter the main city.
