A DOUBLE bombing at a Kurdish party office has killed 19 people in a town northeast of Baghdad, Iraqi officials said.
Police officials said the attack took place on Sunday morning when a suicide bomber set off his explosive vest at the gate of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan office in Jalula, 125 kilometres northeast of Baghdad in the ethnically mixed Diyala province.
Minutes later, a car bomb exploded near the building as security forces arrived to inspect the scene of the first blast.
Police put the death toll for both explosions at 19 killed and 65 wounded.
The dead included a senior police officer and four of his bodyguards, and several houses and cars were damaged in the attack.
Hospital officials confirmed the casualty figures.
All officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorised to talk to media.
The PUK is headed by the ailing Iraqi president Jalal Talabani, who is receiving treatment in a hospital in Germany.
