"Anbar operations command has been cleared," Muhannad Haimour, spokesman and adviser to the provincial governor, told AFP. Several security officials confirmed the retreat.
Asked about casualties in the ranks of government forces, Haimour said: "Many but we don't have an exact count."
IS fighters who already controlled most of the Anbar provincial capital used a wave of suicide car bombs Thursday and Friday to take over most of the city.
Army, police, counter-terrorism and local tribal forces had been confined to the operations command base on the northern bank of the Euphrates and the large judicial compound facing it.
"Ramadi has not fallen, there are still people fighting in some neighbourhoods," Haimour insisted.
Police Colonel Jabbar al-Assafi said government forces had withdrawn from Ramadi city.
"The security forces -- army and police -- have pulled out of Ramadi. They headed to the main highway," west of the city, he told AFP by telephone.
An army lieutenant colonel who was among the troops that pulled out of the operations command centre confirmed that IS now controlled all main security bases in the city.
"Army and police and all forces that were stationed at the Anbar operations command have pulled out, as they have from the nearby police station and judicial compound," he said on condition of anonymity.
"Daesh has just taken full control of all main security bases... They torched the main petrol station at operations command as soon as they took over," he said, using an Arabic acronym for IS.

Ramadi ligt zo'n 140km van Baghdad, als je 100 km/u gaat, laten we zeggen niet hele nette/rechte wegen hebt ben je toch binnen 2 a 3 uurtjes van Ramadi in Baghdad met een zelfmoordtruck.
Het hele IS legertje naar Baghdad verplaatsen zou niet meer dan 2 a 3 dagen moeten duren. Tijd dat ze wakker worden daar in Baghdad. Bijzonder detail, de Sovjets hadden precies 3 dagen nodig om 150km af te leggen om de 'ring' om Stalingrad te sluiten en de 6e Armee af te sluiten van de rest van het Duitse leger.

Another soldier who had been stationed at the Anbar Operations Command headquarters said the forces left behind a huge cache of heavy weapons that had recently been sent by Baghdad, including rocket-propelled grenades and heavy machine guns. The weapons had been supplied by both the United States and Russia.
“ISIS is gaining more weapons, and the battle will be harder in the future,” said the soldier, who declined to give his name because he feared for his life.
