(IraqiNews.com) Baghdad – One person was killed and nine others were wounded when three explosions rocked different areas of Baghdad, according to security officials.
Saad Maan, a speaker for the Baghdad Operations, said, “An IED placed on the side of a road at Sadr City, east of Baghdad, exploded on Sunday, leaving three civilians wounded.”
“Another bomb planted inside a minibus exploded on the Mohamed al-Qassem road east of Baghdad, leaving one dead and two others injured,” he said.
“A third one went off inside another bus in Shaab neighborhood, causing the injury of four people,” said Qassem.
The United Nations said last week that 58000 people died due to violence since the self-proclaimed Islamic State took over large areas of Iraq in mid-2014.
