BAGHDAD — A suicide bomber detonated his explosive belt in a funeral tent filled with Sunni mourners in Baghdad on Sunday evening, killing 16 people and wounding 35 others, police officials said. It was the latest episode of near-daily violence in Iraq. Two attacks in northern Iraq earlier Sunday left 2 policemen dead and 37 other people wounded, police officials added. On Saturday, 104 people died in attacks, most of them in a double suicide bombing at a Shiite funeral here. More than 4,000 people have been killed between April and August, a level of carnage not seen since 2006 to 2008, when Iraq was nearing civil war.
