The BBC's Lyse Doucet in the Iraqi capital says the air strikes followed clashes with IS militants, who have been making gains towards the capital. Amariya al-Falluja, 40 kilometers from Baghdad, is a key strategic town. It comes as a US-led coalition continues to carry out air strikes on IS targets in Syria and Iraq.
