2006-09-01
(KUNA) -- The number of victims that died from a series of blasts on Thursday had risen to 52 killed, 160 injured based on hospital records, an Iraqi security source said. The source added these numbers were gleaned from death and injury medical reports coming directly through Al-Kandi, Ibn Al-Nafis, and Imam Ali hospitals. Meanwhile, Iraqi police sources said that the armed men who instigated the series of attacks had used Grad rockets with which they targeted civilian areas including buildings in many parts of Baghdad.
