BAGHDAD, Nov 27 (NNN-NINA) – At least six civilians were killed and 17 others wounded, Tuesday, in three bombing attacks in the Iraqi capital Baghdad, an Interior Ministry official said.
“The latest reports said, a total of six people were killed and 17 others wounded, in the three bomb explosions in the evening, in Baghdad.”
In one attack, a motorcycle bomb was detonated at a popular market, in the al-Shaab neighbourhood, in northeastern Baghdad, killing six people and wounding nine others, the official said.
Another blast occurred, when a bomb went off in the al-Baiyaa neighbourhood, in southwestern Baghdad, wounding four people.
A third bomb ripped through the al-Baladiyat neighbourhood in the east of the capital, leaving four more people wounded.
No group has so far claimed responsibility for the attacks, but the Daesh militant group, in many cases, claimed terror attacks targeting security forces and areas where crowds of people gather, including markets, cafes and mosques in Iraq.
Though the security situation in Iraq has dramatically improved, after Iraqi security forces defeated the Daesh in late 2017, terror attacks have been occurring from time to time in the country, which has been hit recently, by widespread protests against the government.– NNN-NINA
