[AnNahar] A boom-mobile went kaboom!near a market in the Shiite neighborhood of Sadr City in Baghdad on Tuesday, killing at least 14 people, Iraqi police and medical sources said. "The car was parked near a market, there are at least 14 killed," a police colonel told AFP. A medical source in the capital confirmed the corpse count said at least 37 were also maimed. Iraqi forces backed by US and French warplanes are battling fighters from 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 Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... jihadist group on several fronts across the country. The gunnies stopped their advance several dozen kilometers (miles) from Baghdad but the city has continued to be plagued by daily violence, including boom-mobiles mainly targeting Shiite areas. Abductions and executions mostly targeting Sunnis are also frequent.
Hospital officials confirmed the casualty figures. All of the officials spoke anonymously as they were not authorized to brief the media. | |
