BAGHDAD: Bombs in two parked cars exploded in a mainly Shia muslim area of Iraq's capital on Tuesday, killing at least 10 people and wounding 31, police and hospital sources said.
The first blast occurred near a group of labourers gathered to wait for jobs and the second near a traffic intersection, both in the northeastern Sadr City area of Baghdad.
Iraq has been hit by a number of bombings targeting Shia after a political crisis that has threatened to break up its fragile coalition government and raised fears of renewed sectarian violence after US troops pulled out in mid-December.
