At least 68 people have been killed in a car bomb explosion outside a police station in Iraq, exactly one month after the transfer of sovereignty.
Witnesses said a suicide bomber drove a car into a crowded market area, as men queued to join the police.
Dozens of people were also injured in the morning attack in Baquba, 65km (40 miles) north-east of Baghdad.
More than 160 Iraqis have been killed in attacks since the interim Iraqi government took power on 28 June.
There were other casualties on Wednesday, including seven Iraqi soldiers and 35 insurgents killed in fighting south of Baghdad.
