Bombings kill 11 people in Iraq
Iraqi authorities say a series of bombings targeting public places and police have killed 11 people around Baghdad.
Police officials said the first of Sunday's attacks happened when a car bomb exploded in a parking lot in the town of Mahmoudiya, 30 kilometers (20 miles) south of Baghdad, killing three people and wounding 15 others. Later on, a bomb blast in a commercial street killed three people in Baghdad's northern suburb of Husseiniyah. Another blast in a town just south of Baghdad killed two people and wounded nine others. Police said a roadside bomb missed a police patrol in eastern Baghdad, killing three civilians.
