Suicide Bombers Kill 56 Kurds

Two suicide bombers strapped with explosives have blown themselves up in the offices of two Kurdish parties aligned with U.S. occupation forces in Iraq, killing at least 56 people and wounding 200.

The offices of Iraq's two main Kurdish political groups in the northern Iraqi city of Arbil were crowded with senior officials celebrating the Muslim holiday of Eid al-Adha when the bombers struck on Sunday, killing many top leaders of the two groups.
