[READ & SHARE] Car bomb kills 10 at Baghdad intersection- officials Via @iKanzee_RR

A car bomb ripped through a crowded
Baghdad intersection during morning rush
hour on Tuesday, killing 10 people, Iraqi
security officials said.
The blast in the Baghdad Jadida area in the
east of the city also wounded 33 people.
Militants in Iraq frequently target crowded
areas, including cafes, markets and mosques,
in an effort to cause maximum casualties.
On Monday, a suicide bomber detonated
explosives at a Shiite place of worship, or
husseiniyah, in Baghdad Jadida, killing 11
people.
Iraq is struggling to retake large areas overrun
by a major jihadist-led militant offensive
launched in June, which seized second city
Mosul and swept through the country’s Sunni
heartland.
