Baghdad (IraqiNews.com) Two civilians were wounded on Tuesday when an IED blast rocked an area east of Baghdad, according to the Interior Ministry.

The blast occurred at New Baghdad district, east of the capital, injuring two passers-by, said the ministry’s Baghdad Operations.

On Friday, the United Nations Assistance Mission in Iraq (UNAMI) said violence during November claimed the lives of 926 civilians and wounded 930 people.

Observers believe ISIS have begun to target several areas across Iraq to divert security focus on Mosul, where the group fights to defend its last bastion in Iraq under the brunt of continuous advancements by Iraqi government and popular troops.
