(Reuters) - A suicide bomber blew himself up on Thursday during a Shi'ite Muslim religious ritual in the eastern Iraqi city of al-Sadiya, killing at least 16 and wounding 65, a senior local official said.

No group immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, which came on the final day of Ashura, a 10-day Shi'ite ritual.
