| 2006-06-09 |
| Seven Iraqis were killed and 18 others were injured according to initial estimates on Thursday, due to a car blast in Kazmiah neighborhood north of here. An official Interior Ministry source told Kuna that a booby trapped car parked at roadside went off at 19:30 p.m. causing the killing or injury of 25 Iraqis. The blast took place at a location that was center of demonstrations by Kazmiah residents after news on slaying Al-Qaeda chief in Iraq, Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi. The source said most probably the number of victims will rise after efforts made by rescuers to pull out other victims. The ambulances whisked to nearby hospitals 17 who were injured and seven who were killed so far in the car blast. |
