Three blasts killed at least 34 Iraqis on Tuesday, most of them in a suicide car bombing that struck a group of police recruits, officials said. It was one of the highest daily casualty tolls in recent months.

Two of the bombs went off in Diyala province, which has been the site of much of the recent violence and a stronghold of Sunni insurgents. In Jalula, an assailant blew up an explosives laden car, killing 25.

In Tikrit, Saddam Hussein8217;s hometown, a bomb planted in a parked car killed four people and wounded six, including three policemen. It went off during morning rush hour in a street used by government officials.
