		</div><p>US defence secretary Ash Carter has said an American air strike that may have killed a number of Iraqi soldiers seems to have been “a mistake that involved both sides”.</p>
<p>Mr Carter, speaking during a visit to the USS Kearsarge in the Persian Gulf, said he has telephoned Iraqi prime minister Haider al-Abadi to express condolences.</p>
<p>The US military said the air strike on Friday against Islamic State targets may have resulted in the death of Iraqi soldiers near the city of Fallujah.</p>
<p>The military did not say how many may have been killed, but other sources said that about 10 people had died.</p>
<p>The air strike came in response to requests and information provided by Iraqi security forces on the ground near Fallujah, which IS controls, the US military added.</p>
