Iraq attacks kill nine as bomber hits university
2014-04-21
[Egypt Independent] Attacks in Iraq, including a suicide kaboom at a university in north Storied Baghdad, killed at least nine people on Sunday, security and medical officials said.

The attacks, which come as Iraq suffers a prolonged surge in bloodshed, took place less than two weeks before a parliamentary election that will be a major test for security forces.

Officials gave varying accounts of the bombing of Storied Baghdad's Imam Kadhim University.

A police colonel said a suicide kaboomer entered the university before detonating their explosives, while another bomber and a gunman were killed by security forces.

An interior ministry official meanwhile said the bombing took place at the entrance to the university, while a second bomber was rubbed out.

The attack killed at least three people and maimed at least nine, officials said.

#1  I can sympathize with the attackers, if their universities are anything like ours.
