Baghdad-- A string of car bombs killed 15 people and wounded 30 others near Baghdad on Monday, an Iraqi parliament member
Three bombs targeting a vegetable market went off in quick succession, Husain Hamham said. The incident occurred in Jadidat al-Shat in Diyala province, about 10 kilometers, or more than six miles, north of Baghdad.
Iraq has been beset with political and sectarian violence in recent months. Iraqi and international leaders fear that tensions between Sunnis and Shiites could escalate and bring a return of the full-blown sectarian war that raged last decade.
