伊拉克发生针对什叶派穆斯林的系列爆炸袭击案,至少73人丧生。纳西里耶一起针对什叶派朝圣者的自杀袭击伤亡最为严重,至少44人丧生。当时就在几小时前,巴格达发生数次爆炸事件,杀死至少29人。Rafid Jabboori报道。
The attacks struck Shia areas in southern Iraq and Baghdad, and left dozens dead and injured. Car and roadside bombs were used. According to the Iraqi Ministry of Interior, the targets were all civilian[s]. The deadliest explosion hit Shia pilgrims who were passing through a police checkpoint near the southern city of Nasiriyah. Although there was no immediate claim of responsibility, (but) Shia pilgrims and the police have been frequently targeted by al-Qaeda in Iraq, a Sunni extremist group.
