BAGHDAD, (APP/AFP) – A suicide bomber detonated
an explosives-rigged vehicle at a checkpoint near Baghdad on Wednesday, killing at least four people, security and medical officials said.
The bombing at a checkpoint leading to the Husseiniyah area, northeast of the capital, also wounded 21 people, the officials
said.
The blast is the latest in a series of deadly attacks in
and around Baghdad, including a bombing in a crowded shopping
district on July 3 that killed 292 people, one of the deadliest
ever to hit Iraq.
