Two car bombs detonated simultaneously in the Sheik Marouf neighborhood of the Karkh District, injuring 10 Iraqi civilians Sept. 10.The car bombs, which detonated shortly in the central Baghdad neighborhood, were set off near an Iraqi Army checkpoint that had been set up earlier in the day after Coalition Forces and Iraqi Security Forces received tips that there might be possible car bombs in the area. The cars had been abandoned by their drivers near the checkpoints. Both Coalition Forces and Iraqi Security Forces responded to the scene to provide security and medical assistance. The scene was quickly secured and then cleared by an explosive ordinance disposal team. The attack is under investigation. Posted by: Fred 2007-09-12 |
