11 dead in north Iraq violence

11 dead in north Iraq violence - Khaleej Times
"Monday’s violence concentrated on security forces for a second consecutive day, with suicide bombers hitting police sites in multiple cities in north Iraq.
In the deadliest attack, multiple bombings targeting a police station in the town of Sharqat, in Salaheddin province, left four policemen dead and a dozen more wounded, according to police and medical sources.
An initial car bomb outside the station caused no casualties, but as police and emergency responders gathered at the scene of the blast, two suicide bombers detonated their explosives-rigged belts.
Another car bomb, this one set off by a suicide bomber, targeted a police academy in Salaheddin’s capital Tikrit, just a day after the centre launched a recruitment drive."
