Woman suicide bomber kills 30 in Iraqi market attack claimed by IS

In late May, IS attacks in Baghdad killed at least 35 civilians

MEE and agencies Friday 9 June 2017 09:50 UTC

A woman detonated her explosive belt in a market east of the Shia holy city of Kerbala on Friday, killing at least 30 and wounding 35, Iraqi security sources said.

Islamic State claimed the attack in the town of Musayab, in a statement on its Amaq news agency, without identifying the attacker.

A security officer said the assailant was a woman who hid the bomb under the customary full-body veil.

The attack comes as Islamic State is about to lose Mosul, the de-facto capital of the hardline Sunni Muslim group in Iraq, to a US-backed Iraqi offensive launched in October.

Shias attacked, Salafists did it, just like the other story allegedly has it. I don't plug for one side, that's for the experts but reading story after story one can notice things.
