Police officials said the explosion Monday morning was in al-Mouafaqiyah, a village inhabited by families from the Shabak ethnic group. The region near the city of Mosul, 360 kilometers (225 miles) northwest of Baghdad, is claimed by Arabs, Turkmen and Kurds.
The Shabak have their own distinct language and belief system.
