2006-06-15 |
(KUNA) -- Two Iraqi civilians were killed on Wednesday and at least eight others were wounded in a booby-trapped car explosion in the district of Al-Qahira in northern Baghdad. An Interior Ministry source said the explosion took place near a large water tank and severely damaged cars in the area. Meanwhile, an explosive device planted behind the Turkish Embassy in the Waziriya district, Baghdad, left a policeman wounded. Police patrol vehicles cordoned off the area minutes after the explosion. These explosions come hours after intensive security measures were imposed as part of a security campaign declared by the Iraqi government. |
