Iraq attacks kill seven
None
A series of attacks in Baghdad and central Iraq killed seven people Friday, the latest in a months-long surge in bloodshed that comes in the lead-up to major Shiite Muslim commemorations.
In the deadliest incident, two roadside bombs went off as worshippers were exiting midday prayers at the Imam Ali mosque, a Sunni place of worship, in the west Baghdad neighborhood of Amriyah. At least four people were killed and 11 wounded, security and medical officials said. (AFP)
