BAGHDAD - Four suicide bombers hit a Yazidi community in northwest Iraq on Tuesday, killing at least 175 people and wounding 200 others, the Iraqi military said.

The bombs tore through communities near Qahataniya, 75 miles west of Mosul, Iraq's third-largest city, said Abdul-Rahman al-Shimiri, the top government official in the area, and Iraq Army Capt. Mohammed Ahmed.

The attack was the deadliest in Iraq since 215 people were killed Nov. 23 when mortar rounds and five car bombs killed 215 people in the Shiite neighborhood of Sadr City.

Dhakil Qassim, mayor of Sinjar, a town near where the attacks occurred, said al-Qaida in Iraq was behind the attack, citing what he said were Kurdish government intelligence reports.
