Car bomb attack kills five Iraqis, wounds 16 others in Tikrit
2018-11-19
Salahuddin (IraqiNews.com) ‐ As many as 21 people were killed and maimed Sunday in a car kaboom in Tirkit, the capital city of the Iraqi province of Salahuddin, the Security Media Center was quoted as saying.

"The terrorist car kaboom, which took place at al-Atebaa street in Tikrit, left five Iraqi civilians dead and 16 others maimed," Al Ekhbariya TV channel quoted the center as saying.

A security source also said that 12 vehicles were destroyed as a result of the kaboom.

According to the source, the security forces rushed to the blast site and carried the victims to the forensic medicine department, while the maimed were moved to a nearby hospital for treatment.

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) krazed killer group, in most cases, is responsible for attacks targeting crowded areas, including markets, cafes and mosques across Iraq.
