Many Killed In Baghdad Bombings -- BBC News
At least 32 people have been killed and more than 100 injured in a string of bomb attacks in the Iraqi capital, Baghdad, police have said.
Twelve died in a car-bomb attack in the south of the city, shortly before the Iftar meal, when Muslims break their fast during the holy month of Ramadan.
Two further bombings struck the Karrada district later in the evening, leaving at least 19 people dead and 70 wounded.
Another person died in a car bomb earlier in the day in western Baghdad.
