IRAQ - WOMEN'S SECURITY SEARCH EN ROUTE TO RELIGIOUS FESTIVAL

Fri Aug 15

Iraqi policewomen search female Shiite pilgrims as they make their way to a major religious festival, in Latifiyah, about 30 kilometers (20 miles) south of Baghdad, in Iraq, Friday, Aug. 15, 2008. A female suicide bomber struck Shiite pilgrims resting by the side of the road in Iskandariyah Thursday evening, killing at least 18 people and wounding 75, as they were on their way to the Shabaniyah festival which climaxes over the weekend and marks the birth of Mohammed al-Mahdi, the 12th Shiite imam who disappeared in the 9th century.
