Iraq truck bomb kills 72
Police and rescue crews sifted through the rubble of a mosque and dozens of damaged homes today looking for survivors of the worst attack in Iraq this year - a truck bombing blamed on al-Qaida that killed 72 people.
Political parties said Saturday’s attack against a Shiite mosque near the ethnically tense city of Kirkuk aimed at destabilising Iraq, which is slowly trying to return to normal after years of ethnic and religious bloodletting.
