U.S. President Barack Obama Wednesday ordered 450 more military trainers to go to Iraq. The deployment is part of a new effort to support Iraqi troops as they try to retake Ramadi, the capital of Anbar province.

Islamic State militants seized the city last month.

The Obama administration said the extra troops will not fight. Officials say they will join the 3,100 U.S. soldiers already there to "train, advise and assist" Iraqi forces and Sunni fighters.

A White House statement said Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi requested the additional troops.
