BAGHDAD: A blast from an explosive device on Sunday killed three members of Iraq´s security forces and wounded three others in the northern province of Salaheddin, officials said.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the attack in Tuz Khurmatu, which borders a province plagued by sporadic jihadist attacks.
Iraq declared victory over the Islamic State group in late 2017, but its jihadists remain active in the country, particularly in rural areas.
Sunday´s blast killed an army regiment commander, another officer and a security service member, said Zulfiqar al-Bayati, mayor of Tuz Khurmatu.
