ISIS kills 24 with Baghdad car bomb, attack police stations in Samarra
ISIS car bomb killed 24 people in Baghdad's Sadr City district on Monday and the militants also attacked two police stations in the city of Samarra as Iraqi forces fought to oust the group from Mosul, its last major stronghold in Iraq.
At least four other attacks across Baghdad, some also claimed by ISIS, killed nine more people earlier in the day, bringing the total death toll from bombings in the capital over the past three days to more than 60.
In the attacks in Samarra, about 100 km (60 miles) north of Baghdad, security sources said multiple gunmen wearing suicide vests had killed at least seven policemen. Clashes between the security forces and the insurgents continued and an indefinite curfew was imposed on the city, the sources said.
