An Iraqi security source reports that Al-Qaeda sent a 10-year-old girl to carry out a suicide bombing at an Al-Sahwa (Awakening) forces building in a village north of Ba'aqubah, Iraq.
The girl blew herself up near the building but no one else was wounded.
The Iraqi website Alnajafnews noted that Al-Qaeda's use of children for suicide operations, which follows its use of women and mentally ill individuals, attests to the bankruptcy of the organization and to the fact that it can no longer influence anyone but children.
