At least five of the dead were police, Sharqiya al-Isawi, the leader of Amiriya town council said.
A car bomb has exploded in the town of Amiriya near the western Iraqi city of Falluja, killing nine people and wounding 31 others, a local official has said.
A number of cars were set alight by the explosion.
It was the second bomb in Anbar province in as many days. On Monday, a suicide bomber blew himself up at a funeral in the western town of Haditha, killing up to six people.
Attacks common
Once the heartland of Sunni Arab opposition to the US-led invasion of Iraq, Anbar province has calmed down since some influential tribes joined US troops to fight al-Qaeda in Iraq in 2007.
However, anti-government fighters have shown they are still capable of striking government targets with roadside bombs, shootings and suicide attacks remaining common.
Violent deaths in Iraq dropped by more than half in September compared to the previous month, official figures showed last week, with 203 people killed across the country.
September's death toll was the lowest since May, when a total of 155 people were killed.
Nine people were killed and 31 were injured after a car bomb blew up in the city of Falluja in western Iraq, local officials said. At least five of the victims were police officers.

This is the second bomb blast in the Anbar province within the past few days. Six people were killed after a suicide bomber detonated explosives at a funeral in Haditha on Monday.

"Security forces are still looking for victims under the rubble," said the head of the Amiriya local municipal council, Shaker al-Issawi.

According to reports from witnesses, the blast was so strong that it threw bodies onto rooftops of neighbouring buildings.

Unlike previous such explosions, this explosion did not appear to be set by a suicide bomber. A witness near where the car bomb exploded said that a man had parked a blue truck, and left it a quarter of an hour before it exploded.
