Dozens of bodies found in Iraq mass graves
BAGHDAD (AFP) — The Iraqi government said on Monday its forces have uncovered dozens of bodies buried in three mass graves in the restive province of Diyala.
The graves were found in the village of Khani Beni Saad, near the provincial capital of Baquba, after an "arrested terrorist gave information," a government statement said.
A security official from the region said the bodies were being dug out from the graves but did not specify how many corpses were there.
The people were killed by Al-Qaeda fighters, he said without giving further details.
