Iraq

[UPDATE1] A suicide bomber killed 40 and wounded 35 in an attack at the Mustansiriyah University in a Shia neighborhood in Baghdad. Other suicide attacks that occurred in Baghdad include: the Iranian embassy, in front of Hakim’s compound, and a Karrada market, but casualties were low. Sectarian murders have dropped significantly, however. Security forces killed 12 insurgents and captured 98 during Sunday operations.
