By DPA,
Baghdad : At least 25 people were killed and 37 others injured Friday in a series of attacks targeting four mosques in Baghdad, Iraqi security sources said.
Police forces cordoned off all the areas around the mosques in different parts of Baghdad. The blasts took place right after the Friday prayers.
According to the Voices of Iraq news agency, a car bomb that went off near al-Shroufi mosque in the northern district of al-Shaab left 15 civilians killed and 40 wounded.
The agency quoted a source saying that “the casualties are most likely to rise, owing to the powerful explosion and the serious wounds sustained by many victims”.
