Explosions rock Baghdad; 7 killed, 39 injured

None

A series of blasts Thursday morning in Baghdad killed at least seven people and injured dozens more in what appeared to be a coordinated attack across the Iraqi capital.

 

The blasts were the worst violence to hit the country since a political crisis between Iraq's Sunni and Shiite factions erupted this weekend. The political spat, which pits Iraq's Shiite prime minister against the highest-ranking Sunni political leader, has raised fears that the Iraq's sectarian wounds will be reopened. (AP)
