Over 20 dead in another suicide bombing


22 people have been killed outside of Iraq’s capital when a suicide bomber attacked a group of government supported militia. Approximately 40 people have been claimed to be injured according to sources inside the hospital and police.


The militia was collecting their pay checks in an office in al-Taji outside of Bagdad when the terrorist struck. Security and hospital sources have confirmed that most of the victims were members in the police anti-terrorist squad called Sahwa. Many heroic soldiers are also reported dead.

This is the seventh terrorist suicide bombing in Iraq in less than a month.

  1. Good work! I can clearly see the biased opinions in this text. Especially how the article describes the soldiers as heroic.
