On Tuesday, a car bomb exploded near a police station in Baghdad as dozens of
Iraqis were applying to join the force, killing at least 47 people and
wounding 114, officials said.
In a separate attack on Iraq's police force, gunmen in two cars opened fire
Tuesday on a van carrying policemen in Baqouba, killing 11 officers and a
civilian, police and hospital officials said.
A U.S. military official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said the
bodies appeared to be Iraqi nationals and that their hands were tied behind
their backs.
