Iraq
One killed, 5 wounded in 2 blasts south of Baghdad
2017-03-11
[Iraq News] One civilian was killed and five others were maimed on Friday in two separate bombings that hit two neighborhoods south of Baghdad, according to security sources.

Alghad Press website quoted security sources saying that one person was killed and three others were maimed when an bomb went off near a popular marketplace in Suweib district, south of the capital. Another bomb went kaboom! near a fish market in Madaen region, also in the south, leaving two people maimed.

Nobody has grabbed credit for the bombings, but 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 Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
Death Eaters have said they had been responsible for several bloody kabooms and attacks that hit the capital in the past months.

The United Nations
...an organization conceived in the belief that we're just one big happy world, with the sort of results you'd expect from such nonsense...
Assistance Mission in Iraq (UNAMI) says violence in the country left nearly 392 dead and 613 injured, excluding security members, during February. Baghdad was the second most affected province with 120 deaths and 300 injuries, according to the organization’s monthly casualty count.
