Two Blasts In And Around Baghdad Kill 4


Iraqi police say a pair of bombings in and around Baghdad have killed at least four people and wounded 13.

The deadlier blast occurred in the city of Abu Ghraib, about 20 kilometers west of the capital, killing three people and wounding nine.

In the Al-Dora neighborhood of Baghdad, a roadside bomb hit a convoy of Sunni tribesmen, killing one and wounding four.

No one has claimed responsibility for either attack, however officials have linked much of the violence that takes place in Baghdad to the Islamic State extremist group.
