Two buildings in Haji Ziad Square in of the Iraqi city of Ramadi show extensive damage in this March 20, 2016, photo, months after U.S.-backed Iraqi forces freed the city from the Islamic State group. More than 3,000 buildings and nearly 400 roads and bridges were damaged or destroyed, and whole city blocks wiped out in some cases, by airstrikes, fighting or intentional destruction by the militants. The massive destruction is forcing officials from Iraq and the U.S.-led coalition to rethink tactics as they move to retake other cities from the militants. (Photo by Maya Alleruzzo/AP Photo)
