Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki has decided to send reinforcements to the restive Anbar province to combat al-Qaeda-linked militants there.
According to Iraqi media, Maliki reversed his decision to withdraw army from the western province in response to requests from residents and local officials. Earlier, the prime minister defended his decision to deploy troops in the restive province, saying the battle against terrorism would continue to the end. On Wednesday, Iraqi security forces entered sporadic clashes with militants who burned four police stations in Ramadi. Anbar province has been gripped by deadly violence since Monday after police and the army dismantled an anti-government protest camp in Ramadi.

London calls on the British armed forces to send in reinforcements for the Olympic Games. The UK military has been asked to provide some 3,500 extra troops to guard the Olympic Games. The security duties for the event have been contracted in part to the private security firm G4S. But there are fears that the company cannot provide the 13,700 guards it promised to deliver for the venue.
Press TV has conducted an interview with Yvonne Ridley, a journalist and defense analyst, to further shed light on the issue.

Britain\'s Secret Intelligence Service-- commonly known as the MI6, wants more spies to be sent to Afghanistan.
MI6 has called for reinforcements from other intelligence agencies. It says when British troops withdraw from Afghanistan next year, the country will become an \"intelligence vacuum\" where terrorists will pose an increased threat to Britain. There are around 8000 British military personnel in Afghanistan now and the number will fall to 5200 by the end of this year. Britain is to fully withdraw its military forces from Afghanistan as part of a NATO pullout by the end of 2014.
