A member of the Iraqi pro-government forces fires a rocket propelled grenade during clashes with Islamic State (IS) group fighters as they try to enter the eastern Askari neighbourhood of Fallujah during a military operation to clear the city of IS fighters still holed up in the former jihadi bastion on June 19, 2016. Despite facing less resistance than expected from IS in Fallujah, an emblematic jihadist stronghold, sniper fire, car bombs and booby traps remained a risk for Iraq's forces as they try to clear central Fallujah of pockets of IS fighters.
