Nine Killed in Baghdad Fuel Tanker Bomb Blast
A tanker rigged as a massive bomb struck toward a Baghdad police station in Seidiyeh, exploding and killing nine people while wounding 60. The blast levelled a large industrial area, creating an 82 foot crater as roofs collapsed and debris spread for blocks. The attack, a self-destructive bombing, comes amid a spate of violence against police and government sites since the new government took power on June 28.
