Deadly market bomb hits Iraq city

At least 25 people have been killed in a car bomb attack at a market place in the northern Iraqi city of Kirkuk, officials say.

The blast came as US troops completed their withdrawal from towns and cities in Iraq, six years after the invasion.

Iraqi and US troops are on high alert for insurgent attacks during the withdrawal operation.
