Widespread Attacks Kill Over 80 In Iraq





Attacks Across Iraq Kill More Than 80 -- Washington Post



BAGHDAD — More than 80 people were killed and dozens were wounded Monday in a string of attacks across Iraq, the deadliest day in the country this year, police and government officials said.



In the worst incident, two bombs exploded in a busy market in the city center of Kut, killing at least 42 people and injuring more than 50.



In an apparently coordinated series of attacks Monday morning, bombings cut a swath from the northern city of Kirkuk to the pricey Mansour district of Baghdad and south to Najaf. Elsewhere, assailants wielding AK-47s targeted anti-terrorism leaders in Diyala province, northeast of Baghdad.
