At least 15 people have been killed and 35 wounded after a female suicide bomber blew herself up among policemen north of Baghdad, Iraqi police and hospital forces have said.
The attack took place in Baquba, the capital of Diyala, a multi-ethnic province where there have been a succession of offensives against al Qaeda fighters.
Police and hospital sources said eight of those killed in the attack outside a court house in Baquba, 65 km north of Baghdad, were policemen.
Police officials said the woman walked over to a group of policemen as they ate lunch at an outdoor restaurant and then detonated explosives under her clothing.
Several cars were also set ablaze.
A number of female suicide bombers have carried out attacks in the past six months, mainly in Diyala, that police have been blamed on al Qaeda.
