Iraq's Ramadi hit by suicide car bomb
A suicide car bomb in western Iraq has killed at least eight people, including six policemen, reports say.
The blast hit near the Anbar provincial government's offices in central Ramadi at 1000 (0700 GMT), officials say.
The blast comes as PM Nouri Maliki tries to form a government and end a long period of political uncertainty.
That process is part of a power-sharing agreement ending a record eight months of deadlock since Iraq held inconclusive elections in March.
More than 20 people were injured in Sunday's blast, and the latest reports suggest there may have been a second explosion shortly afterwards.
