SUICIDE BOMBER KILLS 12 AT SUNNI FUNERAL IN BAGHDAD...

An Iraqi boy inspects a burnt out vehicle the day after a bombing attack near a funeral tent in the Sadr City district of Baghdad on September 22, 2103. Two bombings targeted mourners in a Shiite area of the Iraqi capital, killing at least 56 people and pushing the monthly death toll past 500, officials said, the latest in the worst violence to hit Iraq since 2008. 

A suicide bomber attacked a Sunni funeral in Baghdad on Sunday, killing at least 12 people, Iraqi officials said, a day after bombings targeting Shiite mourners killed more than 70.

Medical and security sources said the bomber, who detonated explosives at a funeral tent in the Dura area of south Baghdad, also wounded at least 30 people.

The attack came a day after bombings against mourners in Sadr City, a Shiite area of north Baghdad, killed at least 73 people and wounded more than 200.

The United Nations on Sunday warned against revenge attacks for the Sadr City blasts.

"Retaliation can only bring more violence and it is the responsibility of all leaders to take strong action not to let violence escalate further," Gyorgy Busztin, the UN secretary general's deputy special representative for Iraq, said in a statement.

"Violence in all forms must be condemned, but I am particularly appalled by the increasing number of vicious attacks against those already bereaved," he said.

The Sadr City and Sunday's bombings were not the first targeting mourners in recent months.

They came after two bombs exploded on Friday at a Sunni mosque near Samarra north of Baghdad, killing 18 people.

Iraq was ravaged by a bloody Sunni-Shiite conflict that peaked in 2006-2007 and killed thousands of people.

There are persistent fears, bolstered by sectarian attacks this year, that Iraq may return to all-out conflict between its Shiite majority and Sunni minority.

SNAKE FOUND ON QANTAS PLANE AT SYDNEY AIRPORT, FORCING DELAY...

Staff found the 20-centimeter (8-inch) Mandarin Rat Snake in the passenger cabin near the door late Sunday before passengers were due to board the flight bound for Tokyo from Sydney International Airport, Qantas said in a statement.

Australia’s flagship airline said passengers were given hotel rooms overnight and left Sydney on a replacement plane Monday morning. Qantas said the original jet would be fumigated before returning to service in case there were other snakes on board.

The snake was taken by quarantine officials for analysis.

The Agriculture Department said the snake, a species that grows to an average 1.2 meters (4 feet), had been euthanized, “as exotic reptiles of this kind can harbor pests and diseases not present in Australia.”

The department said the snake had arrived aboard the jet in a flight a day earlier from Singapore.

“The Department of Agriculture is looking into how the snake came to be on the plane, but isn’t able to speculate at this time,” it said in a statement.

The mildly venomous Asian snake was about the width of a pencil and did not pose a threat to humans, but it had the potential to cause ecological havoc in the Australian environment if it had escaped the plane with a mate, Canberra Reptile Zoo herpetologist Peter Child said.

While snakes rarely pose aviation hazards, a 3-meter (10-foot) python in January clung to the wing of a Qantas flight from the northeast coast city of Cairns to Papua New Guinea. The python died during the flight but was still attached to the wing when the two-hour flight ended in the national capital Port Moresby.
