Baghdad, Nov 13
A bomb planted in a minibus exploded in eastern Baghdad today, killing 16 people and wounding 20, police said.
The bombing ocurred shortly ater midday in the predominantly Shiite neighbourhood of Shaab, police Lt Ali Muhsin said.
Sunni insurgents have routinely carried out such attacks against Shiite Muslims, in an apparent bid to incite sectarian violence that now rages across central sections of the country. |
