Four IS militants wearing explosive belts detonated the devices after a fierce clash at a checkpoint at the entrance of the headquarters in Garma town, an official told Xinhua news agency.
The attack comes after Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi on Tuesday formally declared Mosul liberated from the IS after nearly nine months of fierce fighting to dislodge the militants from their last major stronghold in Iraq.
