BAGHDAD, Iraq (AP) - A suicide bomber detonated explosives Sunday inside a northern
Iraqi cafe popular with Shiites, killing 25 people and injuring 23, an Iraqi general said.
The attack occurred just after sunset at a cafe in the outdoor market in Tuz Khormato,
a mostly Turkomen city 130 miles north of Baghdad, Maj. Gen. Anwar Mohammed Amin said.
Turkomen, one of Iraq's ethnic groups, are mixed Sunni and Shiite. Amin said Shiites
favored the cafe because it was located near a Shiite mosque.
Earlier Sunday, six of more than 30 people seized at an Iraqi Olympic Committee meeting
were released in Baghdad, while a British soldier was killed during a raid in southern Iraq.
