At least 26 people have been killed in suicide bomb explosions at a wedding party in a village near the Iraqi city of Tikrit, medical and security sources said. Wednesday's attack took place in Hajjaj village, located 20km north of Tikrit. Security forces cordoned off the area and imposed a wider curfew for fear of more attackers. A police source said that two blasts hit the wedding and two more targeted security forces at the scene shortly afterwards. There were ongoing clashes between security forces and fighters in the area, he said.
