Iraq Training Sites

Iraqi forces said Tuesday they recaptured Mosul train station, once one of the country's main rail hubs and the latest in a series of key sites retaken from jihadists.

US President Barack Obama is considering expanding the number of training sites for Iraqi forces to bolster the battle against Islamic State, US military officials said on Tuesday, which could mean deploying hundreds more US forces in Iraq.
