2012-06-22 |
At least 13 people were killed and more than 100 injured today when two roadside bombs exploded in a Baghdad market in the latest attack targeting Shi'ites this month. The first blast struck Husseiniya, a market in a predominantly Shi'ite area on the outskirts of the city. The second explosion followed soon afterwards as security forces and others tried to tend the casualties from the first. Mudhaffar Khalaf, a policeman at the scene said, "Fruit and vegetables have been scattered everywhere. Some children were wounded. We have started to evacuate the injured people." |
