Two bombs in a Sunni-majority area of west Baghdad killed at least 14 people on Friday, Iraqi medical officials said, the latest in a series of attacks targeting Sunnis. The two roadside bombs also wounded at least 35 people, the officials said. Other attacks targeting Sunnis, including two bombs near a mosque and one at a funeral procession, killed a further 51 people on Friday, after two days of attacks targeting Iraqi Shiites in which dozens died.

Baghdad, May 15 (EFE).- At least 9 people died and 65 others were wounded Wednesday by six car-bombs in Baghdad, most of them exploding in predominately Shiite districts, an Iraqi police spokesman told Efe. The first car-bomb blew up in Khadimiyah, in the northern part of the Iraqi capital, killing two people and wounding nine. Khadimiyah is the target of frequent bomb attacks against the Shiite community living in that neighborhood.

Bombings in Iraq, including a series of blasts mainly targeting Shiite areas of Baghdad, killed at least 29 people and wounded 70 on Wednesday, security and medical officials said. Car bombs hit Kadhimiyah and Sadr City in north Baghdad, Saidiyah in the south and Mashtal and Baghdad Jadida in the east, killing at least 14 people and wounding at least 47, while a roadside bomb in the Zafraniyah area killed two police, officials said. AFP journalists heard the sound of explosions in central Baghdad, and saw a number of ambulances on the street.
