BAGHDAD – Two young children were killed and two of their siblings were hurt in eastern Iraq Monday when a bomb went off near the home their family had just reclaimed after fleeing it years ago under threat from al-Qaida, a police spokesman said.
The four children were playing outside the house when the bomb went off, Diyala province police spokesman Maj. Ghalib al-Karkhi said. A 6-year-old and an 8-year-old were killed and the two wounded children were 10 and 12.
The Shiite Muslim family returned in October to their home in Baqouba, 35 miles (60 kilometers) northeast of Baghdad. He said they were part of an exodus of Shiites who left in 2007 when Sunni extremists with al-Qaida in Iraq controlled the area and threatened to kill those who stayed.
“Al-Qaida used to send threatening letters to these families,” al-Karkhi said.
Separately, al-Karkhi said a bomb hidden on the car of an Iraqi army officer killed him and injured his wife and two children in Jalula, about 80 miles (125 kilometers) northeast of Baghdad.
Attacks on Iraqi security forces have become commonplace as the U.S. military prepares to leave the country by the end of 2011.
