By IRNA,
Baghdad : A car bomb ripped through a crowded commercial district in a mainly Shia town north of Baghdad on Friday, killing at least 32 people and wounding 43, Iraqi officials said.
The explosion apparently was aimed at a police station but it also severely damaged a nearby medical clinic in a crowded area in Dujail, according to the police.
The blast was the latest in a series of attacks in areas north of Baghdad, where violence has been slower to decline than elsewhere in the country.
