Police say at least 35 people have been killed and 60 others injured. The two bombers blew themselves up among would-be recruits, queuing at the Iraqi army and police camp in the center of the city. Andy Gilligan reports from Baghdad. “Young men, volunteering to join Iraqi security forces, are often targets of suicide bombers and car bombs. But this was a particularly bloody attack. The bomber struck at a police commander recruitment center just west of the international zone in the city center. Earlier in the day, a car and roadside bomb killed 4 civilians and wounded ten others in an attack that was thought to be aimed at a police patrol. Violence has increased markedly since a lifting of a total curfew during the Saddam Hussein verdict.” Arab Foreign Ministers are holding an emergence meeting in the Egyptian capital Cairo to discuss Israeli military action in the Gaza Strip. They’ll try to agree on their next steps after a draft resolution at the United Nations Security Council intended to condemn Israeli operations was vetoed by the United States as unbalanced. Qatar proposed the draft after an Israeli artillery strike on Wednesday which killed 19 Palestinian civilians. The Secretary General of the Arab League Amr Moussa said the American veto would only increase regional anger. In the latest violence in Gaza, Israel killed a Palestinian youth. Palestinian official said he was a 16-year-old civilian. The Israeli army said its forces had hit a militant handling a rocket launcher. Alan Johnstone reports from Gaza. “According to the Israeli army, Palestinian militants launched several rockets into southern Israel in the course of the morning that there were no casualties. The army says that it’ll continue to monitor the area from which the missiles were fired and it has struck at a figure, who was spotted handling one of the launchers. Palestinian officials have said that the teenage r and his brother on a donkey cart had simply strayed into the danger zone. But other Palestinian sources in the area say they believed that the pair had gone in to retrieve the launcher, possibly thinking that they would be paid for it by the militants.” You are listening to the world news from the BBC. The United Nations head of Humanitarian Affairs Jan Egeland has gone to a camp in southern Sudan where fighters belonging to the Ugandan rebel group, the Lord’s Resistance Army, are gathered. UN officials say that Mr. Egeland will have talks with rebel leaders, but it’s not clear whether this is going to include the LRA’s chief Joseph Kony, who’s been indicted by the International Criminal Court in The Hague for alleged war crimes. Mr. Egeland said his final decision on the meeting would depend on whether Mr. Kony agreed to release hundreds of children who the UN says are still held captive by the LRA. “Really it’s a sign of goodwill on their side. This is a group that is responsible for so many atrocities up over the years. It is a group that needs to show that they are willing and able to provide gestures as we know hope that this peace process will bring an end to the conflict.” 楼主
