The fall of Fallujah was a major battle in the city of Fallujah in western Iraq that took place from late 2013 to early 2014, in which Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) militants and other Sunni insurgents including Anbar tribal militias captured the city of Fallujah. It was one of the first Iraqi cities to fall out of the control of the Iraqi Government, and resulted in the Anbar campaign.
