A suicide truck bomb struck an Iraqi army and police checkpoint near a town in Salahudin province north of Baghdad on Sunday, killing six security members and wounding four, a provincial police source said.
"A suicide bomber rammed his explosive-laden truck into a joint Iraqi army and police checkpoint in the afternoon near the town of Balad, 80 km north of Baghdad, killing six soldiers and policemen, " the source told Xinhua on condition of anonymity.
Insurgents often attack Iraqi security forces, accusing them of collaborating with the U.S. occupation.
