BAGHDAD, Iraq – Three people were killed and at least 13 injured in twin bomb attacks in Baghdad on Thursday, an Iraqi security source said.
“A bomb went off in the town of Taji in northern Baghdad, killing one and wounding eight others,” a security official in the interior ministry told Rudaw.
He said that another bomb in the Huriya neighborhood in the northwestern part of Baghdad killed two people and wounded five others.
No group has immediately claimed responsibility for Thursday attacks.
The Iraqi capital has been engulfed in violence and terrorist attacks since the 2003 US-led invasion that toppled Saddam Hussein.
