Over 60 killed, scores wounded in Iraq

By ROBERT H. REID, Associated Press Writer 26 minutes ago

BAGHDAD, Iraq - Bombs killed more than 60 people and wounded more than 200 Sunday in Baghdad and the northern oil center of Kirkuk — a dramatic escalation of violence as U.S. and Iraqi forces crack down on
Iraq's most feared Shiite militia.

Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki left Sunday for talks in Washington this week with
President Bush to discuss sectarian violence, which has risen sharply since Iraq's national unity government took office two months ago.

A suicide driver detonated a minivan at the entrance to a bustling market in Sadr City, the capital's biggest Shiite district and stronghold of radical cleric Muqtada al-Sadr and his Mahdi Army militia.
