Bombing at Kurdish Police Station Kills 13, Wounds Dozens

Reuters now says that a suicide bomber killed himself and 13 policemen in an attack on a police station in a Kurdish neighborhood of Kirkuk, which also wounded over 50 others. Kirkuk, with a mixed Turkmen, Arab and Kurdish population, has been the site of ethnic disturbances in recent weeks.

AP also reported, 'On Sunday, a roadside bomb killed an Iraqi near the northern city of Mosul, while another bomb exploded in Baghdad's al-Washash neighborhood and injured four Iraqi policemen.'
