Car bomb detonation kills 10, injures 40

ATTACKERS detonated a car bomb near police and government buildings in the western city of Haditha yesterday, killing 10 Iraqis.

The prime minister said he would create a new security service geared toward halting the insurgency.

Police apparently thwarted an attack in Karbala, where police chased a car after receiving a tip it was filled with explosives. The two militants inside detonated their bomb, killing only themselves and causing no other casualties.
