Suicide car bombers attacked two Iraqi police patrols in the capital Sunday, killing 10 people, including five members of Iraqi security forces, police said. The first suicide attack killed two policemen and one civilian in the eastern New Baghdad neighborhood, police 1st Lt. Mohammed Jasim said. The attack also wounded seven policemen, some seriously, and one other civilian. About an hour later the second suicide car bomber exploded near a police convoy near the Bay'a bus station in southern Baghdad, killing three police commandos and four civilians, police Capt. Talib Thamir said. Three civilians were also injured in that blast, The Associated Press reported. After a lull in attacks following a security sweep last month through the capital, attacks have increased in recent days, including a suicide bombing Saturday that killed at least 60 people in Musayyib, about 70 kilometers (40 miles) south of Baghdad. On Friday, at least seven suicide attacks exploded in the country, killing at least 30 and wounding over 110 people.
