Weeping relatives bury dozens killed in Iraq suicide attack

Weeping relatives gathered in small groups to bury 50 people killed by a suicide bomber in the northern Iraq city Mosul, after cancelling a mass funeral procession for fear of another attack.

As the mostly Shiite Muslim families mourned their dead, Iraq’s main Shiite and Kurdish coalitions agreed yesterday in Baghdad on a deal divvying up the top three posts in the new government, but differences remained over the deployment of Arab troops in ethnic Kurdish areas.
