A series of bombings and shootings has killed more than 60 people in Iraq during celebrations marking the end of holy month of Ramadan. Nearly 300 people were wounded. Most of the casualties occurred in the capital Baghdad in a spate of apparently coordinated car bombings. Here is Alhassan Sillah from Baghdad.

The car bombs were parked in alleys, restaurants and cafes to cause as many casualties as possible. Families were all celebrating the third day of the Eid al-Fitr holiday marking the end of holy month of Ramadan. At least eight districts were hit, most of them Shiite. To the north of capital in Tuz Khurmato a suicide bomber blew up a car bomb near a police checkpoint. Blame has fallen on al-Qaeda and the Sunnite minority especially supporters of Saddam Hussein’s Baath Party that many Iraqis suspect foreign agents are trying to provoke a resumption of sectarian thrive.

Seven police officers have been questioned in Kenya by investigators who suspect them of looting during a fire that destroyed the arrival’s hall of Nairobi’s international airport earlier this week. Those been investigated also include immigration staff, airport workers and taxi drivers. Genc Lamani has more details.

The authorities in Kenya cannot hide their embarrassment following revelations that some of the very people who were supposed to raise the alarm and protect public and private property were involved in the looting that followed the destructive fire. The seven suspected police officers including an inspector as well as a number of immigration personnel were filmed by security cameras stealing. Items allegedly stolen from some of the destroyed airport shops that were found on them include cash and alcohol.
