Explosion kills two people and wounds two in Iraq's Qaim - mayor


FALLUJA, Iraq (Reuters) - A parked vehicle exploded in Iraq's western province of Anbar, killing two people and wounding two others, a district mayor said on Thursday, the latest attack inside what was once Islamic State's last stronghold in the country.

The explosion occurred in Anbar's Qaim district, 300 km (185 miles) west of Baghdad. Iraqi forces retook the area, which lies on the border with Syria, in December 2017, after which they declared final victory over the group.
