Iraq blasts kill four
Four Iraqis have been killed in two successive bomb attacks targeting a liquor store in western Baghdad, police and health officials said today.
A police officer said 13 other people were injured in the blasts, which happened late lastnight in the capital’s Rissala neighbourhood.
He said the first bomb went off near the liquor store, while the second came a few minutes later as police and residents rushed to the scene. Three policemen were among those killed.
The casualties were confirmed by a medical official at the nearby al-Yarmouk hospital.
