Sources say ex-Iraqi Kurdish intelligence official killed in car bombing

A former senior member of an intelligence agency linked to an Iraqi Kurdish party was killed in a car bomb blast in the city of Dohuk in Iraq's Kurdistan region, a security source told Reuters.

Videos shared by local media showed smoke rising from the mangled wreckage of a car.

The security source stated the incident was being investigated and the cause of the explosion had not yet been determined.
