Baghdad, June 2 (RHC)-- In Iraq, suicide bombers from the self-proclaimed Islamic State rammed Humvees packed with explosives into a police base in Anbar province, killing at least 45 Iraqi police officers.

The attack resembled the tactics ISIL used to take control of the city of Ramadi, deploying explosive-laden Humvees seized from Iraqi forces. Iraq’s prime minister has acknowledged security forces lost about 2,300 Humvees to ISIL when they retreated from Mosul last year.

The Obama administration last year reportedly approved the sale of 1,000 machine-gun-equipped Humvees to Iraq at a cost of $579 million.
