Deadly car bombing rocks Iraq’s Baghdad
Reuters, Baghdad Thursday, 16 February 2017

A car bomb exploded in Baghdad for the third day running Thursday, killing at least 55 people in a southern neighborhood, an interior ministry official said.

The blast rocked the same Bayaa neighborhood where a car bomb had already killed four people on Tuesday, the official told AFP, speaking on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to talk to the press.

He said another 25 people were wounded in the explosion, which went off in a busy market area. Hospital officials confirmed the casualty toll.
