A suicide bomber has killed at least 50 people outside a police recruitment centre in the Iraqi town of Tikrit, officials say.
At least 100 other people were injured in the blast in the town, some 80 miles (130 km) north of Baghdad.
The toll from Tuesday morning's blast was the highest from a single attack since a Baghdad church siege in October which killed more than 50 people.
Violence in Iraq has ebbed in recent years, but deadly attacks persist.
The bomber - wearing a vest packed with explosives - was in the middle of about 100 volunteers who were waiting outside the building to be interviewed, witnesses said.
Most of his victims were police recruits, officials say.
