Gunmen Kill 10 Police, Kidnap 5 in Iraq
For the second day in a row police officers have been kidnapped in Iraq.
Gunmen attacked a police station in Rawah, on Sunday evening.
Ten officers were killed and five were taken.
The gunmen also burned a nearby army outpost after chasing the soldiers off.
On Saturday, ten officers were kidnapped from Ramadi.
No one has claimed responsibility for either attack, but it is thought to be the work of Shiite groups.

North Korea Launches 4th Missile
North Korea launched a fourth short range missile, on Sunday.
This followed their launch of three on Saturday.
All of the missiles fell into the Sea of Japan, and nothing was damaged by them.
For months North Korea has threatened to launch one of their mid range Musudan missiles.
The launches may have been a way for them to save face, while still backing down from their threats of using a more dangerous weapon.
