Follow-up.
Gunmen who stormed the University of Anbar in the Iraqi city of Ramadi and briefly took students and staff hostage have now deserted the campus, police sources have told Al Jazeera, while fighting between security forces and rebels in a northern city killed 59 people, Alarabiya reported.

The hostages fled to safety after the armed men left and security forces then secured the area.

There were no reports of casualties in Saturday's incident, which the police blamed on the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) group.
