In Ramadi, the capital of Anbar province, a man walked into a restaurant and detonated his suicide vest, killing at least 15 people and wounding 13, according to an Interior Ministry official and Hamid al-Hais, the head of the Awakening Council in Anbar.

Anbar, once a battleground between al Qaeda in Iraq and U.S. and Iraqi security forces, has seen a drop in violence because many people in the region have joined the anti-insurgent “awakening” movement.

Abdul Salam al-Ani, head of the Anbar Provincial Council, told CNN that 25 days ago, Iraqi security forces foiled a suicide attack on the same restaurant.
