Four US soldiers died in Baghdad from injuries sustained in fighting on Monday, the US military has said.

US forces withdrew from Iraqi towns and cities ahead of a midnight deadline on Monday, handing over security duties to Iraqi police and military forces.

There has been a recent rise in violence with several large bombings targeting markets.

More than 4,300 US soldiers have died in Iraq since the US-led invasion of the country in 2003.
