From The BBC:

At least 32 people have been killed in bomb attacks in the Iraqi capital Baghdad and the northern city of Mosul, officials say.

Two bombs exploded near Baghdad's police academy, killing 15 people, many of them reported to be civilians.

At least another 14 died and 30 were wounded in a suicide car bombing in the centre of Mosul.

Earlier, three people died and a general was seriously wounded in a roadside bomb attack in north Baghdad.

Gen Mudhar al-Mawla was reported to be one of the senior officials handling the transfer of US-backed Sunni armed neighbourhood groups to government control.

Official figures showed that 296 civilians were killed in Iraq last month, 58 higher than in October, partly because of more bombings in Baghdad.
