Bomb damages shrine over grave of Saddam's father


TIKRIT, Iraq, Feb 28 (Reuters) - A bomb attack on Tuesday badly damaged a small mosque shrine Saddam Hussein had built over his father's grave, police and local officials said.

The officials, confirming earlier reports of a blast at the site by residents, said bombs were planted at the shrine at dawn.

...

The attack could stir sectarian passions after the bombing of a Shi'ite shrine last week plunged Iraq into its deepest crisis since Saddam was toppled by a U.S.-led invasion in 2003.
