Baghdad Bomb and Bullet Bulletin: 10 die
[AlArabiya]. Iraqi officials say a string of roadside bombs and a shooting have left nine people dead and 33 wounded across the capital.Thursday's violence comes one day after Iraqi authorities announced that construction had begun on a wall and trench around Baghdad to prevent militants and explosive-laden cars from entering the capital, where bombings and suicide attacks have been commonplace for over a decade. Most attacks on Baghdad are linked to Sunni militants and tend to target members of the Shiite-dominated security forces and civilians. The security and hospital officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media. Posted by: badanov 2016-02-06 |
