Veiled bomber kills 16 at Iraq police station

A woman veiled in black and strapped with explosives blew herself up outside a police station in Iraq on Tuesday, killing 16 people, many of them looking for jobs in the police force. The bombing occurred in the restive town of Muqdadiyah, in the flashpoint province of Diyala, which is now considered the second most dangerous area of Iraq after Baghdad itself.
