Dozens Killed in Bombing Outside Baghdad -- Voice of America
Dozens of people have been killed in twin bombings targeting Sunni worshippers in Iraq - bringing the death toll from several days of violence to nearly 100 and increasing fears of renewed sectarian conflict.
The first bomb exploded after the worshippers left a mosque in Baquba, just north of Baghdad. A second bomb went off as people gathered to help the wounded, killing at least 40 and injuring dozens more.

On Thursday, 25 people were killed in separate car bombings in Shi'ite neighborhoods of Baghdad and Kirkuk. And at least 33 were killed on Wednesday in bombings in the capital and other cities.
