A car bomb has exploded in the centre of the Iraqi city of Ramadi, killing at least eight people and wounding another 32, an Iraqi police source has said.
The explosion occurred outside a restaurant in a busy area of Ramadi, which is about 100 kilometers west of Baghdad, the Iraqi capital.
Sources told Al Jazeera that the bomber targeted a police patrol and at least two officers were among the dead.
Ramadi is the capital of Anbar province which was the site of some of the worst violence following the US-led invasion in 2003.
While the level of attacks in Anbar has declined, security in the province remains precarious.
Two other car bombs blew up in the city of Falluja, about 50km west of Baghdad, killing at least four people and injuring 21.
Police said one car bomb was left behind by gunmen who robbed a currency exchange merchant of $85,000 at his home.
The other exploded near a police patrol. A police source said the blast killed two people and wounded 11 others.
