The death toll from suicide attacks in Baghdad totals 38

At least 38 people have been killed and more than 105 have been injured, in two suicide attacks in central Baghdad capital.

 

Iraqi Interior Ministry spokesman Saad Maan said the target of two suicide attacks, which occurred earlier this morning, was the Aviation Square in Baghdad.

No one has claimed responsibility for these explosions, but similar attacks in Iraq have been carried out by members of the incumbent group, Islamic State (IS), the Kosovo Clan broadcasts.

In December of last year, the Iraqi government declared the war “closed” against IS, after members of this group had been driven out of the Baghdad region and from Iraq's inhabited spaces, which were under control of IS militants. /Periscopi/
