Attacks in Iraq Kill At Least 33

BAGHDAD (AP) — Attacks across Iraq including a suicide bombing at a Sunni funeral killed at least 33 on Wednesday, authorities said, while police found 13 bodies at two different locations with gunshot wounds to their heads.

Bodies were frequently found dumped during the height of Iraq's sectarian violence in 2006 and 2007, when the country was at the edge of civil war. Although monthly deaths tolls are still significantly lower than they were then, a seven-month spike of violence that shows little sign of abating has raised fears that widespread killing may be rekindled.
