A takfiri suicide bomber killed six people on Saturday in the Iraqi town of Tuz Khurmatu, officials said.
The bomber detonated an explosives-rigged vehicle at a checkpoint in the town, also wounding 16 people, according to Shallal Abdul Baban, the official responsible for the area, and a police colonel.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack, but suicide bombings are a tactic employed by extremists in Iraq, including the ISIL terrorist group.
