Suicide bombers kill 68 in southern Iraq
By Abdel-Razzak Hameed

BASRA, Iraq (Reuters) - Suicide bombers killed 68 people, among them 17 children incinerated in two minibuses on their way to school, in coordinated strikes on police stations in Iraq's mainly Shi'ite city of Basra on Wednesday.

Basra mayor Wael Abdul-Hafeez accused Osama bin Laden's al Qaeda network of being behind the morning rush-hour blasts that shattered months of relative calm in the southern city.

Near-simultaneous vehicle explosions hit three police stations in Basra and a police academy in Zubair, a mainly Sunni town 25 km further south.

"All four attacks seem to have been carried out by suicide bombers," said a British Defence Ministry spokeswoman in Basra, which is in Britain's sector of responsibility in the U.S.-led force in Iraq.
