Woman bomber kills 17 Iraqi police recruits
 A woman suicide bomber killed 17 police recruits outside an Iraqi police station northeast of Baghdad on Tuesday in the first major attack on volunteers for local security forces this year. A guard at the station and police officials said the woman was wearing an abaya and had been strapped with a belt filled with explosives. The attack wounded 33 people in the majority Sunni Muslim town of Muqdadiya. "The recruits were bringing along their files and they were intending to line up when all of a sudden there was a big explosion," the guard said.The woman had been acting suspiciously as she walked among the dozens of recruits, he added.
