In Iraq, police say at least 50 people were killed when a suicide bomber targeted the funeral of two anti-al-Qaeda Sunni tribesmen in a mainly Sunni town north of Baghdad.
Officials said the suicide bomber walked into a tent crowded with mourners and detonated explosives strapped to his body. The bomber, who was dressed in traditional Arab robes, was apparently admitted by guards without a search. Dozens were injured in the blast. Northern Iraq has seen an upsurge in bombings this week, including one that killed 40 people in the town of Baquba, on Tuesday.
