As far as I can ascertain at present, no coalition forensic personnel were injured in this incident. I believe that some local forensic practioners have a few minor injuries, but secondary confirmation of this is still awaited.

Unfortunately a second forensic lab was the target of a bombing incident yesterday. Sadly, some local forensic personnel died and others were injured as a result of this terrorist incident.
Please spare a thought for the families of the deceased and injured.

MOSUL: A car bomb hit a police forensics bureau in the restive northern Iraqi city of Mosul on Tuesday, killing two officers and wounding nine other people, emergency services said.

Among the dead was police Captain Ahmed al-Juburi, while another five policemen were wounded in the attack, which happened at 7:30 am local time, police and medical officials said.

“We received two dead bodies and nine wounded,” said Dhanoon Abdul Gheni, a doctor at Mosul's Medical City hospital.

“Four of them are seriously injured, and two of them received treatment and have been discharged.”

A police officer speaking on condition of anonymity confirmed the toll and said the blast was caused by a car laced with explosives that had been parked next to the walls close to the forensics laboratory.

Attacks occur on a regular basis in Mosul and surrounding Nineveh province, which is among Iraq's most violent areas. —AP
