Baghdad: The terrorist organization Islamic State (ISIS) has claimed responsibility for two suicide bombings in Baghdad, the capital of Iraq. The attack has killed at least 32 people and injured several others.

On a website linked to the Islamic State late on Thursday, the organization said in a statement that “heretical Shias” were targeted in the attack. On Thursday, two suicide attacks in a crowded market in the capital have killed at least 32 people and injured more than 100 people. The condition of many people in the injured remains critical.

Major General Tehseen Al-Khafaji, a spokesman for the Joint Operations Command, had reported that the first suicide bomber shouted before the attack in a crowded market that he was ill, so many people gathered around him Went, then he exploded. The second attacker quickly bombed himself.

This is the first suicide attack in Baghdad’s crowded market in nearly three years. Earlier in 2018, there was a suicide attack in the same area after the Prime Minister Haider Al-Abadi announced victory over the terrorist organization Islamic State.
