Islamic State claims central Baghdad bombing

None

The hardline Sunni militant group Islamic State claimed responsibility for a suicide bombing on Tuesday morning in central Baghdad that police said killed three people and wounded 27.

 

The blast occurred near a gathering of workers in Tayaran Square, about a kilometre from a sit-in held by supporters of influential Shi'ite cleric Moqtada al-Sadr to demand political reforms.
