Two suicide bombers detonated explosives-rigged vehicles earlier today in a town north of the Iraqi capital that has battled militants, killing 10 people, police and a doctor said.
The blasts in Dhuluiyah also wounded more than 30 people, the sources said.
The first blast breached a barrier surrounding the Jubur area — which held out against the renewed militant push for the town — while the second bombing struck inside.
There was no immediate claim for the attack, but suicide bombings are almost exclusively carried out by extremists, including those from the blood thirsty terror group that calls itself “The Islamic State” (IS) group, which spearheaded a major offensive that has overrun swathes of territory since it was launched in June.
