In western Iraq, 56 people died on Saturday when a fuel tanker rigged with explosives blew up at a Sunni mosque. Over 100 people were also injured. Analysts say the bombing was likely carried out by fellow Sunnis connected to al-Qaeda. It occurred a day after the mosque’s imam described al-Qaeda as “a bunch of corrupted individuals.”
