40 killed in suicide car bomb attack in Iraq

In Iraq, at least 40 people were killed and more than 60 wounded after a suicide car bomb attack targeted a police officer's wedding in Amiriyat al-Fallujah.Amiriyat al-Fallujah, 35 kilometers south of Fallujah, is home to pro-government Sunni tribal fighters, who fought IS for more than two years



and repelled many attacks on their town before the armed group was pushed out of Fallujah in June.

No group has yet claimed responsibility for yesterday's explosion, but police said they believed that the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant group was responsible for the attack.
