In Baghdad, Iraq there was a series of bombings right before a major Muslim holiday. The bombing killed at least six people and left fourty-eight others injured. The first series of bombings was located Iskandariya where two bombs detonated at around 11:00 am at a fairly busy marketplace. At least two people died and twenty-eight others were wounded. The second attack took place at a taxi and bus station. The bomb was located inside a parked car and when it detonated two more people died along with another ten injured. The Muslim holiday is known as Eid al-Adha and is a very popular day. Many people were on the streets, at market places celebrating this event. The last bombing took place in Baghdad and the bombs were attached to civilian vechicals. The first bomb blew up as the car was traveling on the highway. This explosion killed the person driving and left a couple a couple others injured.
What was suppose to be a fun evented turned into massive bombings. I dont think its fair that six innocent people had to loose their lives. I think this is a terrible and I don't know why someone would plant these bombs.
