Suicide Bomber in Iraq Kills at Least 20

伊拉克官员说，一名自杀炸弹杀手炸死至少20名参加葬礼的人。他们说，在巴格达北区的一个什叶派穆斯林社区，在悼念者聚集的一个帐篷发生内的爆炸还炸伤了25人。这是星期一在伊拉克各地发生的一系列攻击中的最新一起。

在首都巴格达西区，一名汽车炸弹杀手攻击了一个伊拉克警察检查哨卡，至少4人丧生，10人受伤。在巴格达其他地方，一枚路旁炸弹炸死一名平民，枪手打死了前萨达姆.侯赛因军队的一名将军。

反叛分子袭击北部城市摩苏尔一个警察局的过程中有4名反叛分子死亡。另外还有一枚汽车炸弹在城内爆炸，炸死一名警察。

另一方面，美国军方表示，美国和伊拉克部队星期天晚间对巴格达的一处什叶派居民区展开一次联合突击行动，打死8名激进分子，一名伊拉克军人丧生。 

驻伊美军4月有100多名美军丧生。这时美国2003年攻进伊拉克以来伤亡最严重的月份之一。

Iraqi officials say a suicide bomber has killed at least 20 people attending a funeral. They say 25 other people were wounded in the blast inside a tent where mourners had gathered in a Shi'ite community north of Baghdad. It was the latest in a series of attacks across Iraq today Monday. 

A suicide car bomber killed four people at a police checkpoint in western Baghdad. In other parts of the capital, a bomb killed one person and gunmen killed a former general in Saddam Hussein's army. 

Four insurgents were killed when they attacked a police station in the northern city of Mosul. A car bomb also exploded in the city, killing a policeman. 

In another development, the U.S. military says American and Iraqi forces killed eight militants late Sunday in a joint raid on a Shi'ite district of Baghdad. One Iraqi soldier was killed. 

More than 100 U.S. servicemen have been killed in Iraq this month, making it one of the deadliest for the U.S. since the 2003 invasion.
