BAGHDAD (Reuters) – A car bomb has killed nine people and wounded 13 in the Bayaa district of southern Baghdad, police said.
The bomb exploded in a car parked on a busy commercial street in Bayaa, a mainly Shi'ite area, police said, adding the death toll could rise.
Violence in Iraq has dropped to four-year lows, but militants still carry out bombings and other attacks almost daily.
