Suicide bombers kill 60 in attacks on holy cities
In Baghdad, dozens of gunmen carried out a brazen ambush on a car, killing three employees of the organisation running next month’s elections.
The bombings came just over an hour apart - first a suicide blast that ripped through minibuses at the entrance of the main bus station in the city of Karbala, then a car bomb in a central square of Najaf crowded with people watching a funeral procession attended by the city police chief and provincial governor.
