RAMADI, Iraq, Feb 19 (Reuters) - Two suicide car bombers exploded in the rebellious city of Ramadi west of Baghdad on Monday, killing at least 11 people and wounding four, police and witnesses said.

Ramadi is the capital of the vast desert Anbar province, stronghold of the Sunni Arab insurgency fighting U.S. forces and the Shi'ite-led government in Baghdad.

Militants entered the Golden Mosque in the Iraqi city of Samarra at dawn exactly one year ago, setting off charges that destroyed the dome of the revered Shi'ite shrine. The act sparked a wave of sectarian bloodshed that has pushed Iraq close to all-out civil war.
