A car bomb and a suicide bomber killed at least nine people and wounded 54 in the northern Iraqi town of Tuz Khurmato on Saturday, police and medical sources said.

The attack took place 170 km (100 miles) north of the capital Baghdad in a region which both the central government and autonomous Iraqi Kurdistan claim as theirs.
