| [Iran Press TV Latest] Iraqi officials say a booby-trapped car has exploded in a central Baghdad area containing several restaurants, killing three civilians and wounding 16 others. A parked vehicle exploded as a convoy of a parliament member from Fadhila, Nadim al-Jabari, was passing by. Al-Jabari was not in any of the vehicles, but the victims were mostly passersby. The vehicle had been parked in a street containing several restaurants popular among Baghdad residents. This is while a few hours prior to the Baghdad explosion, a Christian worker was shot dead by unknown gunmen in Mosul. The incident occurred two days after bombings targeted churches in the country's main northern city. |
