Daytime curfew imposed in Baghdad on Friday
2006-06-09
Iraqi Television announced Thursday that a daytime curfew will be imposed on Friday in Baghdad and Dhaialy province. The curfew in Baghdad will start from 11:00 am local time until 3:00 pm while the Dhaialy curfew will begin from 8:00 pm until 6:00 am. Sources at the ministry of Interior indicated reasons behind the curfew were that Iraqi security forces were trying to prevent terrorist activities from occurring.

Baghdad witnessed today several bombings which resulted in the deaths of 25 Iraqis and injuries of 46 others. Meanwhile, Prime Minister Nouri Al-Maliki announced that a security plan for the Iraqi capital is on the way.

They dont want some Zarqo follower to go blow up another Shia mosque in revenge.
