| A car bomb targeting police exploded Wednesday in eastern Baghdad, killing at least 10 people, police said. Police officer Qahtan Jumaygh said the 8 p.m. (1700GMT) blast in the eastern Zayouna neighborhood was aimed at police patrol cars but did not injure any policemen. The explosion also injured 15 other people and damaged a dozen cars in the area. Eyewitness Mohammed Adullah said the car bomb exploded when the neighborhood's Al-Rubaei Street was most crowded, within a 20 meters' distance of a police checkpoint. Abdullah, who owns an Internet cafe on the street, said he saw "at least 10 civilians killed, including a woman, and five wounded" but that none of the police were hurt. "I just heard a big boom and felt that the ceiling was falling down," said Abdullah. |
