Bomb blast rocks marketplace in Baghdad, leaves two civilians wounded
2018-07-02
Baghdad (Iraqinews.com) ‐ Two people were maimed Sunday in a kaboom in the Iraqi capital Baghdad, a security source was quoted as saying.

"An explosive charge went off at a marketplace in al-Taji district in northern Baghdad, leaving two civilians maimed," the source told Alghad Press website.

"The injured were moved to a nearby hospital for treatment," the source said, adding that security forces immediately rushed to the blast site and opened a probe into the attack.

No group has so far grabbed credit for the attack, but the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(IS) Lion of Islam group, in most cases, is responsible for attacks targeting crowded areas, including markets, cafes and mosques across Iraq.
