L’exèrcit dels Estats Units han traspassat avui el control de la seguretat de la província de Karbala a les forces armades iraquianes, segons informa la BBC:
US forces have handed control of the mainly Shia province of Karbala in central Iraq to local authorities in a tightly-guarded ceremony. Karbala is the eighth of 18 provinces to be transferred to local control since the US-led invasion in 2003. The handover took place as at least 27 people died in a suicide bomb attack on a police headquarters in Baquba, north of Baghdad, according to police.
