Suicide bomber kills 11 on minibus in Baghdad

BAGHDAD, Nov 13 (Reuters) A blast that police said was caused by a suicide bomber killed 11 people and wounded 18 more on a minibus in northern Baghdad today.

Some sources said there was more than one explosion but it was not immediately clear what caused any secondary blasts.

The attack took place in the Shaab district of the capital, an area with a mixed population of Sunni Arabs, Shi'ites, ethnic Kurds and others in northern Baghdad.

It came the day after a suicide bomber killed 35 police recruits in Baghdad in one of the most deadly attacks on security force recruits in months.

A morgue source said yesterday some 1,600 bodies had been brought to the morgue in October as sectarian violence and insurgent attacks killed hundreds of people every week.
